Career Academy

Our Career Academies are 5-week summer programs in which high school students engage with leading New York City employers to explore careers, build career readiness and financial literacy skills, and network with professionals.

Our Vision

Hands On Career Preparation

We recognize that a critical gap in the career preparation for many public school students is limited access to employers, paid work experiences, and exposure to high-growth industries. These students miss out on opportunities to build financial literacy and develop essential career skills. New Visions has developed programs that leverage New York City’s expansive private sector to address this opportunity gap. 

VISION

The New Visions Career Academies provide:

Exposure

Career Readiness Skills

Compensation
