Offered through the OSU Portland Center, the bootcamp will help
fill the more than 1,536 available data analytics positions across
the state, according to LinkedIn. The program will also enable
Oregon to keep pace with an expected surge in demand, as analytics
software company Burning Glass reports a projected 21.5% national
growth rate over the next decade.
“Increasingly, U.S. businesses, especially those on the West
Coast, are undergoing digital transformation and investing in tech
infrastructure for more data-driven operations and evidence-based
decision-making,” said Mogan Subramaniam, president of Fullstack
Academy. “This collaboration with OSU and its Portland Center
enables us to bring our curriculum to the ‘Silicon Forest,’ where
we can quickly train professionals with the data analytics skills
that many companies seek.”
The OSU Portland Center and Fullstack Academy will initially
offer a combination of in-person and remote training, pending
state, local, and university COVID-19 guidelines. The part-time
format of the program will provide individuals the opportunity to
enroll in the bootcamp and gain skills they need for a career
change while remaining in the workforce.
“Both Portland and the state of Oregon have long been tech
innovation hubs,” said Anita Nina Azarenko, interim vice provost
for Extension and Engagement and interim director of the Extension
Service for Oregon State University. “By collaborating with
Fullstack Academy, OSU is able to provide another opportunity for
Oregonians to upskill, join an industry with tremendous growth
potential, and contribute to our state’s tech-forward future.
Through similar programs with acclaimed learning institutions
across the U.S., Fullstack Academy has established itself as an
ideal partner. We’ve witnessed the impact of these bootcamps in
developing qualified tech talent and are excited to support the
tech industry’s rapid growth here on the West Coast.”
The data analytics bootcamp, which does not require OSU
enrollment or prior technical experience, will start accepting
applications this winter, with classes beginning in 2022.
Individuals can complete an interest form to be notified when
registration begins.
