Technology has transformed society. At Sankofatech, we believe anyone passionate about pursuing a career in tech should not be hindered by their socioeconomic status or lack of access. We exist to bridge this gap through the AIT program—a multi-year journey for students of African descent.
"I have recently accepted an internship offer for this summer with Meta (Facebook) in the Bay Area...I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the support and guidance provided by the AIT program, which has been instrumental in preparing me for this next step in my career. The skills and knowledge I've gained through the program have undoubtedly played a crucial role in helping me secure this internship."
"Through this program, I have built connections that have been life-changing, and they continue to bless me with more and more opportunities. My mentor, Joseph has been very instrumental in helping me navigate college and the mock interview organized by the AIT Program has helped me to polish my interview skills"
"The AIT has helped me to keep myself more responsible with my coding skills and has helped me understand that it takes time to reach your goals, but it’s also important to have strong goals."
