Learn and Earn

Learn and
Earn is a program designed to support the student’s educational experience by allowing them to build, and keep for their own, a computer for his or her educational use. To date, we have had over 600 students successfully participate in the program. |

The students,
junior and high school age, spend 20 hours learning the basics of personal computer technology. Under qualified supervision, participants learn the basic inner workings of a personal computer as they build one themselves. At the end of the program, the student has acquired a basic working knowledge of personal computer hardware and has experienced the success of following through with a difficult, yet rewarding experience. In addition to a certificate of completion, the student is also presented with the computer he or she has assembled, to keep for their own educational enrichment. |
Recently The Surplus Exchange and EPA have teamed up to create a project with
some of the youth that participated in the Learn and Earn program. To see that
