We're excited to share that ActivateWork has once again been recognized by Apprenticeship Colorado as an Exceptional Partner and Qualified Apprenticeship Intermediary! This recognition highlights organizations that are helping expand and strengthen Colorado's Registered Apprenticeship system.

As one of the organizations recognized in Colorado, ActivateWork serves as both an Industry Intermediary and a Talent Intermediary. That means we help employers implement Apprenticeship programs while also recruiting, preparing, and supporting the talent those programs need to succeed.

For employers, Apprenticeship offers a practical, proven way to build a skilled workforce, reduce hiring challenges, and develop talent aligned to your business needs. ActivateWork helps make the process simple by supporting recruiting, training, coaching, and program administration.

If you've been curious about how Apprenticeship could support your workforce strategy, we'd love to connect.

Meet ActivateWork graduate Toa Fifita! πŸŽ‰

After completing his Computer Science degree, Toa was ready to build a career in technology.

πŸŽ“ Congratulations to the newest graduates of ActivateWork's AI-Native Business Intelligence program!

Every cohort leaves an impression, but according to our coaches, this group was something special.

"This cohort was honestly one of the strongest we've ever had. There were a lot of natural leaders in there. They all became very close and supported each other not just as cohort members but as friends. There was often a lot of laughter in the room."

We love celebrating career milestones, but we're equally proud of the community that forms along the way. This cohort showed what it means to learn together, support one another, and grow into leaders.

Today, we're celebrating not only their graduation, but the friendships, resilience, collaboration, and confidence they built throughout the journey.

Congratulations, graduates. We can't wait to see where your careers take you next. πŸš€

✨ What Does Opportunity Make Possible? ✨

The most meaningful outcomes aren't always measured by a job title.

They're measured by the lives people are able to envision and build for themselves and their families.

🏠 A stable home.
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦ A growing family.
πŸ“ˆ Financial security.
✨ The confidence to pursue a new future.

Every day, ActivateWork learners work toward goals that are deeply personal to them. Careers are part of that journey, but they aren't the end goalβ€”they're the pathway to something bigger.

As we celebrate 10 years of impact, we're thankful for every donor, volunteer, employer, and partner who helps make those journeys possible.

Because when we invest in people, we invest in stronger families, stronger communities, and a stronger future for all.

When the pandemic turned her life upside down, Sydney Atencio knew she needed a new path forward.

As a working mother navigating job loss and housing instability, she enrolled in ActivateWork's IT Support & Security Fundamentals program to build skills for a stable career in technology.

One of the things that kept Sydney going was her desire to set an example for her older daughter. Throughout the challenges of balancing training, work, and family, she wanted her daughter to see firsthand what determination and sacrifice can accomplish.

After completing the program, Sydney launched a new career in IT and began creating the stability she had been working toward for her family.

Recently, that family grew. Sydney and her husband welcomed a new baby, and one of the outcomes she's most proud of is being able to support her growing family through the career she built. Along the way, she found an employer who celebrated that milestone with herβ€”her colleagues even threw her a baby shower before she began maternity leave.

Her story is a powerful reminder that opportunity doesn't just change careersβ€”it changes lives and creates brighter futures for the people we love.
