California Technology Fellowship Program

This project recommends that the State of California establish a Technology Fellowship Program to leverage talent across its departments to achieve key digital service delivery goals. The Technology Fellowship Program would run annually, bringing employees across state agencies into 12-month rotations at the California Department of Technology. Following training on modern digital service delivery techniques, fellows should lead critical tech innovation initiatives through the Project Approval Lifecycle (PAL) and execution.

This project was completed as part of the 2021 Tech Executive Leadership Initiative (TELI) hosted in conjunction with the Tech Talent Project. You can learn more about TELI here.
