Who We Serve

Navcap serves  Individuals as well as colleges/universities providing robust career readiness supports.

 

 We provide  solutions for Black and LatinX grad students to help them navigate grad school and  prepare them for  post degree success, be it a career launch or a career pivot.

​

 We provide solutions for colleges and universities who prioritize DEI in their programming, strategic planning, and funding to ensure professional success for Black, LatinX, and other historically underserved students.

​

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  training & coaching, mentorship, community-building, and by providing resources.
