Meet Rohit: A Scholar’s Success Story
One of our dedicated scholars, Rohit Patel, a student at Fisk University, embodies the impact of this partnership. Eager to expand his technical skills, Rohit enrolled in the Grow with Google program to enhance his knowledge in IT support and data analytics. Through this opportunity, he gained hands-on experience in troubleshooting, networking, and system administration—critical skills for today’s tech-driven job market.

Rohit credits the program for giving him a new level of confidence in his career journey. “The certification helped me sharpen my skills and made me more competitive for internships and job opportunities,” he shares. “Having this on my resume sets me apart.”
