The BlackMINT Approach
Curiosity.
We share our resources, advice, and services with Black students beginning in middle school. By getting Black youths interested in tech from a young age, we encourage them to find out more about this career path.
Commitment.
In high school, we encourage Black students to enroll in courses that will provide them with the strong foundation they need to pursue a career in tech such as computer science, math classes, and business.
Mentorship.
Our mentorship programs pair Black students with a mentor who can help them navigate high school, picking the right classes while helping them explore extracurricular activities that can make them more competitive applicants for colleges, universities, and job opportunities.
Entrance.
We strive to increase the application and acceptance rates of Black students into college and university programs with a technology focus.
Scale.
As our program has grown, our services have grown as well. We have been able to scale up our services to serve exponentially more students, offering more resources than we ever have in the past.
It is our process that has allowed us to help countless Black students pursue a career in technology.
BlackMINT has built an online platform, called the Rising Star Platform, that serves as the one place for all information about careers in technology, Black professionals and mentors in different careers, and information about requirements to pursue different careers.
Rising Star hosts BlackMINT created content about Black tech professionals in different careers in tech to inspire students through their high school careers.
