The IT-Ready program is run by Creating IT Futures, a charity established by CompTIA to help people improve their lives through careers in tech. IT-Ready offers an on-ramp to successful careers in IT for qualifying adults who enjoy and are interested in technology but don't have formal IT job experience.
"I'm honored that Creating IT Futures chose me to speak to Chicago's IT-Ready graduates this year," Rubin said. "Building a career in the tech world is both challenging and rewarding, and I'm happy to offer guidance based on my experiences to those just starting out."
Rubin will speak to the graduates about his experiences working in IT and how to tackle challenges they're likely to encounter.
