Propel America bridges the gap between education and employment for young adults, offering a unique 'Jobs-First Higher Education' model. We partner with employers to create relevant training programs and connect opportunity youth (ages 18-26) with in-demand roles, providing them with a pathway to economic mobility. Our three-phase program includes career exploration, specialized training (community college or bootcamps), and job placement support. We leverage technology to streamline the process and enhance the learning experience, utilizing platforms like Desire2Learn for online courses. Propel America is committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive environment, empowering young adults to thrive in their careers. Founded in 2018 and currently operating with a small team (1-10 employees), Propel America has secured significant funding and is making a significant impact in the lives of young adults nationwide. Our focus is on creating opportunities for those from low-income backgrounds, providing them with the skills and support needed to succeed. We use a combination of online and in-person support, which makes this a great option for those seeking remote opportunities. Our tech stack currently includes Amazon, PayPal, Amazon SSL, MasterCard, and American Express for payment and infrastructure, along with Desire2Learn for our learning management system. We are constantly exploring and implementing new technologies to improve our programs and service offerings. Propel America’s mission is to create a more equitable system of education and workforce development. We value collaboration, innovation, and a commitment to social impact. Our small, yet dedicated team is passionate about working to create pathways to prosperity for young adults. The organization is actively growing and scaling its impact, constantly seeking ways to improve their programs and reach more young adults. Recent funding and partnerships further demonstrate Propel America’s increasing market recognition and position.
