Less than half of college students are able to complete an internship while pursuing their bachelor’s degree. And difficulty finding good internships leads to difficulty finding good jobs after college.

How? By providing an easy-to-access, for-credit, work-based course that adds real, hands-on experience and in-demand skills to your college degree. 

Learn new skills through self-paced videos from industry experts and real-world case studies.

Participate in a virtual global classroom. These are set meeting times for interactive group discussions.

Complete individual and group projects that simulate early-career work experience with real-world brands.

Develop emotional intelligence skills that will help you stand out in your future job search.

Upon completion, earn skills badges and brand certificates to boost your resume.
