Speakers identifed at Handshake Access conference

priyatalwar commented 1 year ago

For Alexander: Hi, Thank you for an insightful talk at Handshake Access. You called out the most pressing need for addressing challenges around soft skills, mentorship and project-based learning with peers. Your talk really resonated with what we are doing at our non-profit. I am a product manager running an innovative internship program for high school students and budding software engineers. We conducted two pilots and I'd love to set up some time with you to share our learnings. Can you please let me know a few available times that work for you? Looking forward to connecting with you.

Hi, I appreciated your insightful talk at Handshake Access where you called out the need and importance for solutions and partnerships to address soft skills, mentorship and project-based learning with peers. Your talk really resonated with the work I am doing as a product manager on an innovative internship program for high school and college student software engineers. Our nonprofit has piloted two student cohorts ('21 & '22) and research teams. I'd love to set up some time with you to share our learnings (so far) regarding the challenges to interns success. Do you have any availability in July?

Looking forward to connecting with you.
