SoftwareOne Recess
School’s Out – Ready, Set, Go!
SoftwareOne Recess
Children are born into different circumstances and have different opportunities based on their environment. Some are more fortunate than others. Regardless of privileges, SoftwareOne and Amazon Web Services (AWS) believe all kids should be given the opportunity to learn, grow and succeed in the digital world.
At SoftwareOne, our OneImpact and Education teams work with nonprofit and academic organizations worldwide, providing AWS technology and consultancy to help them reach their goals. Many of our offerings provide tools and knowledge to the staff and faculty, allowing them to extend more support to volunteers and students. We seek to increase this engagement with AWS and create direct avenues of impact for our teams to the beneficiaries and students in a meaningful way.
Introducing SoftwareOne Recess
SoftwareOne and AWS are partnering with organizations and schools to offer their kids the chance to interact with AWS technology through AWS DeepRacer Student, exposing them to career paths within the technology sector. Our goal is to provide greater value to the community, and organizations and schools that we do business with. By investing in our youth, we create a pipeline of talent and give our customers tools to engage with their students and beneficiaries on a deeper level.
