On Tuesday, January 23, Fiserv kicked off the program by welcoming to its campus 60 Amana Academy students in grades 5-8. Students received a site tour, met their instructors, and attended the first of 12 “Techie Tracks,” which are experiential learning sessions with activities facilitated by Fiserv experts, distinguished engineers and Amana Academy teachers.
Weekly FIN Future Techies “Techie Track” themes focus on finance and technology and will include:
- The Evolution of Money: From Bartering to Crypto
- Designing with Tech
- Entrepreneurship
- App Fundamentals
- Data Detectives: Cybersecurity and Encryption
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
At the conclusion of the 12-week program, students will collaborate in small groups to create and present a final capstone project focused on developing new solutions using the tools and technology learned throughout the program.
Since the launch of the Fiserv FIN Future Techies program at its Berkeley Heights, New Jersey location, more than 120 students have benefitted from the intentionally designed curriculum. This is the first time the program is being conducted in Georgia, and it will continue to expand to other Fiserv locations in the U.S. later this year.
