Year Up

Year Up

Year Up is a one-year, intensive training program that provides urban young adults 18-24, with a unique combination of technical and professional skills, college credits, an educational stipend and corporate internship.

Our success is our graduates — enabling them to move on to full-time employment and higher education. Year Up is about providing opportunities for urban young adults to demonstrate their true potential. We have achieved excellent results to date:

  • 100% placement of qualified students into internships
  • 95% of interns meet or exceed partner expectations
  • 84% of graduates employed or in college full time within four months of graduation
  • $15/hr average wage at placement

The information above can be found on the official website of Year Up. For more details about the organization and to find out how you can volunteer, please visit their website: http://www.yearup.org
