“Young minds were insprired by one of the world’s most successful companies Saturday. A team from Google stopped by to pass along skills to high school students in Minneapolis. “With this training, I’m learning more about technology than I ever did before,” said Claire McKitrick, a high school student at Roosevelt. “The more I learn, the more it will help me.”
Seventy-five students from the city’s Step Up program took part in the all-day seminar. The students, all of which are soon-to-be summer interns at companies across the Twin Cities, heard from Google executives about various internet platforms and how to reach customers using technology. The training is a new initiative by Google.”
