NPower, Inc.

NPower covers a wide range of industry-recognized technology certifications, including CompTIA Tech+ and A+. CompTIA is the governing body for many foundational IT certifications and is highly valued by employers seeking skilled entry-level talent. Because of this demand, the majority of jobs NPower graduates secure are IT-related roles.

In addition to CompTIA training, NPower offers Google IT and Adobe certifications through Coursera. Students can select the courses that interest them most, and NPower covers all expenses—there are no out-of-pocket costs for training or certification exams. NPower’s Tech+ and A+ courses are taught directly by NPower instructors using a curriculum built around NPower’s own textbook, see curriculum.

NPower serves 60+ students per cohort and trains between 120 and 150 individuals annually across two cohorts: one in the Spring and one in the Fall. After graduation, 80% of students find employment within six months.

While most participants live in Bexar County, NPower serves students across a 200-mile radius, including Austin, Killeen, Houston, and Corpus Christi. The program receives both public and private funding and is a designated San Antonio Ready to Work training provider. During its first two years, NPower was funded by USAA to launch locally and continues to receive statewide support from organizations such as the Texas Veterans Commission. National partnerships also help ensure investment reaches all NPower locations across the country.

NPower’s mission is to ensure every graduate is fully prepared to enter the workforce with both technical abilities and professional confidence. NPower provides soft-skills development, resume support, networking guidance, and in-person professional development events. Students learn how to present themselves, succeed in interviews, and connect with employers—tools that help them transition successfully into meaningful tech careers.
