MILWAUKEE_ The\u00a0University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee\u00a0is launching a new effort to help both current students and alumni access career opportunities in the fast-growing human resources tech industry.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Rise apprenticeship program<\/a><\/u> was designed in partnership with\u00a0Helios Consulting<\/a><\/u>. Helios is an advisory partner of Workday, the HR tech platform of choice for nearly 10,000 companies worldwide, including half of the Fortune 500.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs demand for technology skills continues to grow across the region, 51ÁÔÆæ has a unique opportunity to solve two challenges at once: creating new pathways to high-wage jobs for our community, while also addressing a growing need for workers with those tech skills,\u201d said Scott Gronert, 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s interim provost.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether with Helios, we’re helping to address one of the most critical talent gaps faced by\u00a0Wisconsin\u00a0employers, and enabling our students and graduates to gain the skills that translate to success in today’s increasingly tech-driven labor market,\u201d Gronert said.<\/p>\n

The new partnership advances 51ÁÔÆæ’s 2030 plan<\/a>, which focuses on building more learner-centric programming while also responding to the demands of the region’s economy.<\/p>\n

51ÁÔÆæ students and graduates who participate in Rise will be paid Helios employees starting from day one of training. The program, which includes training and support from industry experts, also provides a pathway to joining Helios’ Fortune 500 clients upon completion.<\/p>\n

\u201cBuilding a more inclusive, resilient tech workforce starts with creating tighter connections between higher education and the world of work,” Helios President\u00a0Trevor Lee said. \u201cThis is about strengthening those connections to help 51ÁÔÆæ fulfill its role as an engine of economic growth for the upper Midwest.\u201d<\/p>\n
