Level Up Tech: Monetize Your Hobbies will explore how to turn a creative passion (YouTube, TikTok, illustration, crafts, streaming, writing, etc.) into a personal brand or creative side hustle. Participants learn digital marketing, branding, and content creation, along with e-commerce basics like pricing, analytics, and customer service. Hands-on practice with Google Suite and AI tools builds computer literacy and efficiency, while pitch-building and presentation work develop the confidence to share ideas and grow a creative business.

Participants will complete final projects: creating an idea and a business plan during 8 weeks of the program. Sessions are held weekly on Mondays afternoons, after school hours. For ages 16-24.

The Level Up Tech programs are designed to prepare participants for entry-level roles across various tech-driven sectors. Each series focuses on a specific industry, equipping participants with skills and knowledge needed to pursue job opportunities in that field.
