Early Career Accelerator Program
This program is designed to get you results like…
Enhanced pipeline diversity
Expanded talent pools
Improved offer acceptance rates
Strengthened brand perception
When companies, industries, and educational institutions have been historically exclusive of marginalized groups, it can be challenging to overcome the entrenched systems and perceptions that perpetuate exclusion. The Early Career Accelerator Program highlights specific barriers to inclusion and deploys targeted interventions to increase the diversity of early professional pipelines, usually focused on college freshmen and sophomores.
