Skill-a-Thon

• United Way of Southern Chester County has partnered with Microsoft to host a FREE online program to help both professionals and job seekers learn more about Artificial Intelligence, what it is, how it works, and how to use it.

• The program is called the Community Skills Initiative A.I. Skill-a-thon.

• This September, we will be hosting a month-long Skills challenge with $20,000 in prize money!  Skill-a-thon runs from September 1-30.  Pre-registration begins on August 15.

• Courses are short and will be available in both English and Spanish. 

• Courses are available at all levels, so it doesn’t matter if you already know a little about artificial intelligence or are just getting started.  There is something to learn for everyone! 

• Plus, there are other courses available as well to help people successfully navigate the paths to in-demand roles in a more digital economy.

• Participants will register on our site and begin learning!  The more you learn, the more points you earn!  Earn points as an individual or as part of a group. 

• Participants must be 16 and older to enter.

• If you are interested in learning more about how your business or organization can get involved, please call Julie Dods at 610-444-4357.
