Avenues to Career Training

Avenues to Career Training (ACT) offers critical information and foundational skills for Northern Virginia residents to pursue better-paying jobs and build careers in fields where there is a great need for skilled workers. Britepaths and the Financial Empowerment Center at South County (FECSoCo) are currently offering a new Learning to Launch pre-employment series and two Information Technology training courses throughout the year. Trainings are offered virtually until further notice.

Avenues to Career Training-IT offers free, full-time, skills development courses to help unemployed and underemployed individuals in Northern Virginia who might not otherwise have access to technical education develop the skills they need to pursue entry-level IT positions. Britepaths and FECSoCo help learners gain job-specific skills, connect with employers, and embark on IT careers.

We are collaborating with AWS re/Start to offer a 14-week tuition-free training for the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner Certification. The program will be offered virtually until further notice, with live instruction Monday-Friday, 9am-3pm.
