Welcome to E1T1, a global technology and engineering education and workforce development nonprofit that empowers individuals, including girls and people of all backgrounds, to become leaders, creators, and ready for a career in tech. We are delighted to extend the opportunity for you to share your expertise, be a role model, inspire and support a student or family to tackle real-world problems.  

Be a Mentor
Connect directly with interns as they learn about technology and create a tech product to solve a community problem. Mentors are volunteers who are trained coders and technologists who study or work in the field. They agree to train at least one mentee, at least once a week, for at least one hour for six weeks. They may help onsite or remotely, from anywhere in the world. They support learners using the automated online curricula, and help learners build confidence and find jobs.

One hour a week for six weeks is all it takes to be a *Star!* for a lifetime. We seek volunteer mentors, especially but not exclusively technology-capable, to work in person or remotely with students to help them with questions about their lessons, job search, or first job, encourage them, and share your stories about trying to break into the technology field. We can't all volunteer for hours and years. But if everyone helps out one person for a few hours, that's enough to make a difference!

Your contribution will be remembered for a lifetime.
