MASS TECH INSTITUTE |
TechBoston was established by Boston Public Schools (BPS) School-to-Career and the Office of Instructional Technology in 1998 with funding from the Massachusetts Department of Education. TechBoston offers advanced technology courses to equip BPS students with high-tech skills essential for success in careers and post-secondary education. Over 2500 students and 150 teachers have received high-tech skills training through courses offered by TechBoston. The Private Industry Council works closely with TechBoston to place high school students in industry internships with area companies. Businesses benefit from the students' technical savvy while the students benefit from applying their newly honed skills to real world business applications.
