Computer C.O.R.E.

Most jobs now require some degree of proficiency in computer skills. A significant percentage of low-income adults do not have these skills that are prerequisites for gaining more meaningful employment, and Northern Virginia's businesses need more skilled workers. Computer C.O.R.E.'s training program addresses these needs by providing training in computer skills, personal development, and job search strategies. CORE's Mission is to help low-income adults acquire the technological and life skills they need to pursue their career aspirations. CORE's Vision is a world where all people shall have the skills and confidence to pursue their dreams, reach their full potential, and make meaningful contributions to their communities.
