From Our Community
“Our Latinos in Technology scholarship students are provided the tools and resources to build a professional network from scratch as part of their holistic internship/job search. The TECH industry is competitive, and we need to provide the necessary means for our Latinx students to succeed. The Career Launch Academy does just that with it’s methodologies.
Our scholars report huge gains in self-confidence.
And they love the program’s multimodality content delivery.”
Lisa Dominguez, Director of Programs
Hispanic Foundation of Silicon Valley
“Career Launch has innovative ways to help students build a bridge between where they are and where they want to be. This work fills important gaps in the development of career competencies and providing career education at scale.
The Career Launch Method has been extremely effective for the
students we support---students who attend 2-year and 4-year colleges throughout the country. It also makes our career counselors more efficient because they have a common language and methodology
to refer to when teaching students how to network and build professional relationships from scratch."
