NWA Tech Academy

Connecting Students in Tech to Employers in Northwest Arkansas

Our Mission

Elevating Arkansans and Arkansas businesses through tech talent development, driving inclusivity of underrepresented and minority groups in the talent landscape.

Our Vision

NWA Tech Academy works to expand the tech economy in Arkansas by finding, cultivating, and pairing tech talent with businesses across the state.

The Program

College students are paired with an employer for paid, project-based work while receiving mentorship from our senior technical leaders. 

Students gain meaningful paid experience in their field of study, gain skills directly vetted by employers, and establish a close relationship with prospective employers. 

Employers receive an affordable, reliable talent development solution combined with valuable work product outcomes. 

Companies have access to strong entry-level tech talent, sourced from our partners at local academic institutions and talent development programs. 

We remove the risk and administrative burden associated with recruiting, hiring, and mentoring.
