The grant will enable Merivis to expand its training to San Antonio and support approximately 75 veterans in the five-week Merivis Salesforce training program, which prepares them to become certified Salesforce administrators. The training program combines content from Trailhead , Salesforce’s free online learning platform, with custom assignments for each student and includes one-on-one coaching, webinars and professional development skills training. Veterans selected for the program are provided with mentors, professional development services and receive help with job placement following the program completion.

這筆贈款將使Merivis能夠將其培訓擴展到聖安東尼奧,並在為期五週的Merivis Salesforce培訓計劃中支持大約75名退伍軍人,該計劃為他們成為認證的Salesforce管理員做好準備。該培訓計劃將Salesforce的免費在線學習平臺Trailhead的內容與每個學生的定製作業結合起來,包括一對一輔導、網絡研討會和專業發展技能培訓。被選中參加該計劃的退伍軍人將獲得導師、專業發展服務,並在計劃完成後獲得就業安置方面的幫助。

The Merivis training teaches veterans how to automate workflows and maintain an organization’s Salesforce integration. Two cohorts of veterans from the San Antonio area and nationwide started the training in June, and Merivis will offer a more-advanced administrator training in the fall for two additional groups in San Antonio and nationwide.

Merivis培訓教授退伍軍人如何自動化工作流程並維護組織的Salesforce集成。來自聖安東尼奧地區和全國的兩批退伍軍人從6月份開始接受培訓,梅里維斯將在秋季為聖安東尼奧和全國另外兩個羣體提供更高級的管理員培訓。

“The training will equip veterans with critical skills to help them transition into in-demand technology jobs,” said Kate Perez, co-founder and executive director of Merivis. "This new grant supports our efforts to address rising unemployment and its impact on the veteran community by providing financial support to help us expand to San Antonio and continue our training programs. We look forward to continuing our mission to transform the careers of veterans and military spouses in partnership with Accenture and Accenture Federal Services.”

董事的聯合創始人兼高管凱特·佩雷斯説:“這些培訓將使退伍軍人掌握關鍵技能,幫助他們過渡到需求旺盛的技術崗位。”這筆新撥款通過提供財政支持,幫助我們擴展到聖安東尼奧並繼續我們的培訓計劃,以支持我們解決不斷上升的失業率及其對退伍軍人社區的影響的努力。我們期待着繼續我們的使命,與埃森哲和埃森哲聯邦服務公司合作,改變退伍軍人和軍人配偶的職業生涯。

"At Salesforce, we know that veterans and military spouses offer unique skills that make them exemplary employees," said Ann Weeby, head of Salesforce Military. "With our corporate commitment to match the Merivis grant, together we are upskilling and re-skilling the veteran community with new high-demand technical skills and the support to land meaningful employment. A win-win for the employers and veterans."

“在Salesforce,我們知道退伍軍人和軍人配偶提供獨特的技能,使他們成為模範員工,”Salesforce Military負責人安·韋比(Ann Weeby)説。通過我們的公司承諾與Merivis贈款相匹配,我們共同提高和重新掌握退伍軍人社區的技能,擁有新的高要求的技術技能和支持,以獲得有意義的工作。對僱主和退伍軍人來説,這是一個雙贏的局面。

As part of the grant, Accenture is providing pro bono advisory and technology support to enhance program outreach and build out capabilities to help Merivis create a more robust virtual community for veterans and engage the wider veteran community.

作為贈款的一部分,埃森哲將提供無償諮詢和技術支持,以加強計劃的外展和建設能力,以幫助Merivis為退伍軍人創建更強大的虛擬社區,並吸引更廣泛的退伍軍人社區。

“The additional pro bono support will help Merivis alumni, volunteers and staff connect and provide support and resources to their extended community as they navigate today’s virtual environment," said Ben Peavy, managing director of AFS’ San Antonio Advanced Technology Center and a lifelong resident.

美國宇航局聖安東尼奧先進技術中心董事管理人員、終身居民本·皮維表示:“額外的公益支持將幫助梅里維斯校友、志願者和工作人員在他們駕馭當今虛擬環境的過程中,聯繫他們擴大的社區,併為他們提供支持和資源。”

Accenture has been a Merivis partner for several years, providing ongoing financial support, enlisting employees to serve as program volunteers, organizing internal employee giving campaigns, and hiring of Merivis graduates. The Austin office has selected Merivis to be the beneficiary of the annual Accenture Austin sponsored Veterans Day Memorial Walk every year since 2016.

多年來,埃森哲一直是Merivis的合作伙伴,提供持續的財務支持,招募員工擔任計劃志願者,組織內部員工捐贈活動,並聘用Merivis畢業生。自2016年以來,奧斯汀辦公室每年都選擇梅里維斯作為埃森哲奧斯汀贊助的退伍軍人日紀念步行的受益者。

Franklin Aldridge, an Army veteran, went through the Merivis program a few years ago in Austin and was hired by AFS as a system developer associate. “The Salesforce technical training is so valuable,” Aldridge said. “The mentorship opportunities and employment preparation help veterans like me transition into highly coveted careers after military service.”

富蘭克林·奧爾德里奇是一名退伍軍人,幾年前在奧斯汀參加了Merivis項目,並被AFS聘為系統開發助理。“Salesforce的技術培訓非常有價值,”奧爾德里奇説。“輔導機會和就業準備幫助像我這樣的退伍軍人在服完兵役後過渡到夢寐以求的職業。”

Army Maj. Gen. George Franz, AFS managing director and defense cybersecurity lead, said, “This technical training gives veterans even more marketable skills so they can deliver an even greater contribution to companies, like Accenture, that are looking to fill key positions. In fact, Accenture is on pace to reach a goal set in 2015 of hiring 5,000 veterans by the end of 2020.”

空軍董事管理和國防網絡安全主管、陸軍少將George Franz説:“這次技術培訓為退伍軍人提供了更多適銷對路的技能,以便他們能夠為埃森哲等希望填補關鍵職位的公司做出更大貢獻。事實上,埃森哲有望實現2015年制定的目標,即在2020年底之前招聘5000名退伍軍人。
