The IT industry needs more workers — and more workers need more opportunities. As the philanthropic arm of CompTIA, the world’s largest IT industry association, the Creating IT Futures Foundation is taking on this workforce challenge through research, program development and partnering. We create on-ramps for more people to prepare for, secure and succeed in IT careers. We particularly encourage an IT path for populations that traditionally have been under-represented in the information technology workforce, such as women and ethnic minorities. Founded in 1998, the Creating IT Futures Foundation is registered as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization with the Internal Revenue Service. Thanks to the invaluable support of our partners, we are placing people in family-sustaining work – and solving many of the problems facing our charitable system.

Garage Band U creates a fun and supportive environment where musicians of all ages develop their skills by performing as members of a functioning rock band. Musical confidence and ability grow together and thrive at Garage Band U. Semesters last 6 to 12 weeks, with an open enrollment policy. Students are grouped in small classes with musicians of the same age and experience level. Band size is kept small (usually 4-6 people) to ensure that everyone plays his or her principal instrument at all times. Musical repertoire is determined by the band members; students are encouraged to submit appropriate song suggestions. Groups rehearse for 1 hour per week, culminating in a live performance at a public venue with a stage and professional sound system. Garage Band U students learn what is expected of professional musicians, and they experience the thrill and pride of performing together as members of a real rock band. The Garage Band U program helps students: • Set and achieve goals • Work effectively as part of a team • Tap their creativity • Network with other musicians • Make new friends Garage Band U students also learn to embrace important values: • Discipline • Confidence • Self Esteem • Integrity • Commitment
