CompTIA, the nonprofit association for the IT industry and workforce, and Maher & Maher, a recognized leader in building innovative and successful apprenticeship initiatives, were selected by the U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL) to participate in the national apprenticeship initiative. The program is designed to help companies of all sizes – from small firms such as RGB CustomPC to large enterprises with thousands of workers – to fill their staffing needs for technology professionals, and to do so in a way to opens career opportunities for more individuals.

“As our business has evolved, the need for qualified technical support specialists has increased,” Millay explained. “The comprehensive curriculum will provide invaluable training across a broad spectrum of workplace behaviors, leadership skills, customer service skills, and technical aptitude. We expect to continue to experience rapid growth over the next few years and desire a powerful and talented group of people to grow with us.”

“Apprenticeships are a proven method for developing the tech talent that any business needs,” said Amy Kardel, vice president for strategic workforce relationships at CompTIA. “We’re pleased to welcome RGB CustomPC to the program and look forward to working with them as they grow their business and create new career opportunities for more people.”
