Interactive panels and virtual workshops featuring HBCU alumni in various fields will equip students with the information, skills and insights needed to thrive after graduation, with a focus on identifying and attaining economically mobile careers.
Grow with Google
KR Scholars is proud to announce our partnership with the Grow with Google program. Through this collaboration, we are launching a Certification Program designed to provide computer science and IT majors from HBCUs with the opportunity to earn industry-recognized digital certifications.
This initiative is more than just a training program—it is a crucial step toward closing the opportunity gap and addressing the digital divide that disproportionately affects underrepresented communities. By equipping our students with cutting-edge skills and knowledge, we are empowering them to thrive in the competitive technology sector, aligning with our mission to support HBCU students in building successful careers.
