An IT Manager and Software Designer Describes Her Work and Passion, JustJobs.com

With 15 years experience on the job, this software designer describes what she enjoys about her work and how she entered this field.

ACM, the Association for Computing Machinery

ACM provides most of their online resources for members, but nonmembers will find several areas open for review. The Chapter listings will connect you to local professionals who share your interests, and many maintain their own web sites. The Career Opportunities are open to the public, but the majority of these listings are for academic positions. ACM members have access to an even larger array of career services, so you may want to consider joining.

Center for Women and Information Technology

Based at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, CWIT's primary goal is to promote women's involvement in the IT industry. Visitors to their website will find links to online resources relating to women and information technology (IT) including news, learning the basics of computers, careers in IT, training and certification, and more. There is also a bibliography and a FAQ (with links to many outside resources).

CompTIA

..." a non-profit trade association advancing the global interests of IT professionals and companies, we focus our programs on four main areas: education, certification, advocacy and philanthropy." They have numerous certification programs available and many employers who seek qualified IT personnel with these certifications. Learn about all their offerings on the site.

Software and Industry Information Association (SIIA)

..."the principal trade association for the software and digital content industries." How does that benefit a job seeker? Under "Membership Benefits" you'll find a list of all the member companies ("employers") with links to their websites.

Creating IT Futures

This program "provides people with the funding and the training to enter the information technology industry. We fund training and scholarships for students, veterans, individuals with disabilities and others in need." CompTIA works with employers to determine what emerging skills are necessary to work on the latest technologies, and creates certification and non-certification training programs designed to fill these needs. The form is online, and it is easy to complete. Not everyone who applies for the program will be accepted as participation is based on eligibility and available opportunities in your region, but you cannot be selected if you never apply.

Federal Cyber Service: Scholarship for Service

"Scholarship For Service (SFS) is a unique program designed to increase and strengthen the cadre of federal information assurance professionals that protect the government's critical information infrastructure. This program provides scholarships that fully fund the typical costs that students pay for books, tuition, and room and board while attending an approved institution of higher learning. Additionally, participants receive stipends of up to $8,000 for undergraduate and $12,000 for graduate students." Funding is available to undergrads in their last 2 years of studies as well as students pursuing grad / PhD degrees. Yes, you will need to "serve" your time in a Federal agency after completing your education, but this looks like an excellent way to pay for college and a good way to get some valuable experience in online security. Only select institutions are participating, so check the most up-to-date list on the website before you begin.
