hey’ve never written a line of code in their lives.
A year ago, Intuit became a founding partner with AnitaB.org and Treehouse to launch a new apprenticeship program called Intuit Career Pathways. The premise was simple: we’d give participants an accelerated Treehouse Tech Degree program in crash-course in software engineering skills, move them into a hands-on apprenticeship as part of an Intuit team, offer them a full-time role with our company, and then provide two more years of ongoing support and mentorship to help them make the most of their new career in tech. To broaden the reach of the program as much as possible, we focused on under-represented groups including Black, Latinx, Indigenous, LGBTQ+, women, men, and non-binary people — whether they had tech backgrounds or not.
