IT Experience for the underrepresented – fueling the energy workforce in Houston in Cyber and Analytics – Ep 28

March 21, 2023

In this episode our host Jason Duff and Jim Kocis talk with Silver Ehiwario, CEO and Michael Ehiwario, VP of IT Experience (a nonprofit org) about their backgrounds as Chemical Engineers, the journey to setting up IT Experience in Houston and the focus on underrepresented in technology and how teaming with IBM in Houston will bring advantages to the energy workforce.

IT Experience focus on providing free training programs with specific focus on specific communities that are underrepresented in technology and will help skill women, including mothers returning to the workforce, ethnic minorities and low-income individuals.

A great local Houston joint initiative that allows IBM + IT experience to build local cyber and data analytics for our Oil & Gas business.

This partnership is part of IBM’s global SkillsBuild program to train 30m people by 2030
