NEW YORK — BrainStation, the global leader in technology skills training, is proud to announce a significant expansion of its New York operations, including a 35,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art campus in the city’s SoHo neighborhood, and a multi-year investment of over $20 million in local growth initiatives.
