Introducing a New School of Thought
The future depends on an abundant flow of technophiles with the skills and experience to solve big challenges. Yet more than 700,000 tech roles currently sit vacant in the U.S. due to a dramatic gap in the tech talent pipeline.
Exelaration addresses this shortage by connecting people of varied backgrounds with the technology workforce. Our offices, located in Blacksburg, VA, Raleigh, NC, and Arlington, VA, opens the door for the next wave of engineers.
Through our award-winning program, early-career developers gain hands-on experience and expand their skillsets under the mentorship of established experts. These team members not only enhance our client delivery teams’ capabilities, they also help us deliver quality technology solutions at a lower cost. The best part? Clients have the option to hire these vetted developers upon project completion.
