The BlueTech Workforce Program creates workforce positions for students at companies and organizations in the SF Bay Area Blue Economy. 

City College of San Francisco joined our Program in March, 2026. Our Workforce Program expands MESA internship programs at CCSF, placing students at co’s that are a fit for their skills and career aspirations.

“The BlueTech Workforce Program is exposing Bay Area community college students majoring in engineering and computer science to the new, expanding area of BlueTech.

‘Although I knew nothing about this area beforehand, I can clearly see that it will be a large part of our future. Clark and Mike have provided a pathway for the MESA program at CCSF to partner with blue economy companies, while paying students for this priceless opportunity.”
