The program runs from March 1st - May 15th.
We will meet virtually every week on Wednesday from 7-8PM ET.
Each session will cover a specific topic. The session topic list can be found here.
Additionally, we will have a range of optional special session topics such as Public Speaking 101, Industry Specific Q&A, etc.

What to Expect:

- Each session will be a combination of a small presentation to explain the topic, and then the second half will be an activity to practice or work on the topic discussed.

- We will have mentors on each call to ensure you get all the help and assistance you may need.

- Certain items like Resumes will take more time than one-hour to complete, so we recommend putting in work outside sessions, then returning with questions.

- Take away from the program will include a full set of documents, skills, and tools you'll need to kick off your career and equip you with the confidence to apply for internships.
