Built for students

Who's it for? Navcap is for  graduate  students  seeking a constellation of  professional  and personal career supports within and outside of their university walls.

 We serve entry and mid-level Black and LatinX individuals   preparing for a career launch or a career pivot.

Innovations in career guidance in higher education  have shifted from consulting towards  building networking communities, ecosystems, and social mobility (Dey & Cruzvergara, 2019). However, colleges and universities buy and large, do not have a robust model to support this change. We fill this gap.

Our Promise & Value: To empower  Black and LatinX students in pursuit of the career they envision and the quality of life they seek.

Our process: We deliver on our promise through career accelerating communities, mentorship, network-building, and leadership development.
