Each year, we see how these programs equip students with critical skills and a mindset geared towards innovation and success. Our involvement goes beyond mere sponsorship – it is a partnership aimed at building a positive tomorrow, together.”

Atlas Insurance is the employer of over 200 individuals and fosters an environment where TeamAtlas is encouraged to thrive and continuously learn. Among their workforce are several former student interns who have gone on to pursue full-time careers with the company.
