Tech Missions Programs

I want to know the cities for The Bachelors + Americorps and Also the Work Study Internship. And any additional information about the courses.

TechMission Corps in Atlanta, GA

To Whom it May Concern: I am inquiring about any open TechMissions positions in the Atlanta, GA area. I did not see any position descriptions directly in that area so I thought I would ask. I am a rising 2nd year grad student at Emory University - Candler School of Theology that is looking for a paid internship. I can begin immediately.

Please let me know Thanks, Stacey Doremus 770.309.0241
