We provide guidance for starting your workforce experience but more importantly we provide skills enhancements to fast-track your career

We are facing the fingerpointing frenzy: corporations believe students should have specific social, financial and professional skills coming into the workforce while college is set up (and continues their focus) to help with some introductory programs and corporate pipeline connections. 

What's happened is essential skills like networking, business communications, presentation & interview aptitude and more are left up to students without direction.

We are here to not only be the students' compass, but also their GPS.

Why We Exist

People are drowning.
Drowning in debt, financial instability, professional insecurity  and social anxiety without safer shores in sight.
We are here to be your life raft.

College is a wonderful experience that opens up people's minds & lives but it's under assault right now and not structured with the curricula, resources or funding to make big changes. As a partner to Higher Ed, we are here to fuse the professional experiences with the industry and research best practices to bring students the #1 thing they want college to do for them: secure a higher lifestyle.

The difference between good and great advice can be life changing. And great is our starting point.

Sure TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and Twitter are full of expert advice but how do you know what to search for? What's good and what's not? What works and what doesn't? What's most effective?

This is where we come in to collate, curate, combine, consolidate and all other ways to say we collect the best.
