FOUNDED IN 2017
An Evolution
A number of catalysts convinced the team behind Miami EdTech (formerly focused in southern Florida) to take their mission nationwide as Advance Computer Science:
- Students of all ages became even more comfortable learning remotely during Covid-19
- The team developed significant expertise in launching, managing, and growing Registered Apprenticeships
- Miami EdTech incubator graduate GoSprout’s apprenticeship management platform began to get national adoption
- It became clear the team had significant expertise in identifying and winning grants from programs across the nation
- The demand for CS/IT education beginning in high school has never been higher nor more critical for ensuring our nation’s youth have a path to well-paid jobs
So the team met with its board and decided the time was right to take their mission and skills to a wider audience. Advance Computer Service now serves students, schools, and employers across the country.
