For people who already know they want a career in business.

The Accelerate: Career Launch Track is for ambitious young adults who have completed Incubate, know they want to work in business, and are ready to build practical skills, create proof of their ability, and prepare for a strong first role. Most people start with little or no professional work experience.

What you'll do.

Four moves that turn six months of work into a job offer.

  1. Practice the work businesses actually need.

    Build practical skills through hands-on challenges, simulations, and projects modeled on the kind of work businesses rely on every day.

  2. Create proof of what you can do.

    Build portfolio-worthy work that demonstrates your skills and gives employers something concrete to evaluate beyond credentials alone.

  3. Develop expertise in your chosen path.

    Build a strong business foundation, then go deeper in the skills most relevant to the kind of work you want to pursue.

  4. Turn your skills into a strong first role.

    Learn how to find the right opportunities, build applications that get noticed, connect with the right people, interview well, and run an effective job search with coaching, mentorship, and warm introductions to employers in the Praxis partner network.

"

The first half of Accelerate gave me proof of progress. ... I've built skills that most people don't develop until much later: communication, initiative, and the ability to create opportunities instead of waiting for them.

MacKenzie GoetzPraxis Participant
“

I have had my whole perspective of the career world turned upside down. ... I feel more than ever empowered to go out and forge a path for myself. Most importantly, I have the agency to pitch myself directly to someone, rather than having my name drawn by chance out of a hat of candidates.

Benjamin NalePraxis Participant
“

It was a great learning environment all through the program. To have someone leading me through the program, peers to look to for inspiration, and a great mentor; it creates an environment for growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to complete Incubate first?

Yes. Every Praxis participant begins with Incubate. Finishing it earns a certificate of completion, which is what makes you eligible to apply for an Accelerate track.

How do I get in?

Accelerate participation is by application, not open enrollment. Once you have your Incubate certificate, you apply, and the decision comes down to how you showed up in Incubate: attending the weekly calls, submitting your deliverables, communicating well, and handling yourself professionally. Your program lead and mentor both weigh in. The program fee is $6,650, and the full terms are here.

How is this different from Incubate?

Incubate is a six-week foundation focused on habits, skills, relationships, and direction. Accelerate's Career Launch Track is a six-month program that builds on that foundation with practical business skills, portfolio-worthy work, and a job offer guarantee.

How do I know if Career Launch Track or Entrepreneur Track is right for me?

Career Launch Track is built for people who want to build a career inside a business, in areas like marketing, sales, operations, or customer success. Entrepreneur Track is built for people who want to build and launch a business of their own. Compare the two by also reading about the Entrepreneur Track.

When do I have to decide which Accelerate track I should join?

You'll first tell us your preference on the Accelerate application in Week 5 of Incubate. If you're not sure yet, choose "I don't know yet" and your program lead will reach out to help you think it through.

You'll make your choice when you enroll in Accelerate, via a checkbox on the payment form. We ask before Accelerate starts so we can match you with a mentor who fits your track and will stay with you the whole way. This also gives you the chance to go through the program with an eye for your end goal, whether that's landing a job or launching a business.

Both tracks start with the same nine weeks of business foundations. The specific tracks begin in Week 10, so everything you do in the first nine weeks applies to either track.

What if I want to switch tracks at some point in Accelerate?

Please choose carefully, since your mentor and cohort are set up around your track. Both tracks share the first nine weeks of business foundations, so if you're having second thoughts, talk to your program lead as early as you can.

Once your track begins in Week 10, you can't switch. Joining a new track partway through would put you behind your new cohort and disrupt your mentor relationship.

If your track starts to feel challenging, that's normal. Both tracks are designed to stretch you. Talk to your program lead and your mentor. They're there to provide you with support.

Will I have access to the content for both tracks?

No. When the tracks begin, each track has its own curriculum content and weekly workshops, and only participants in that track can see them. You'll be fully supported in the track you choose: curriculum, mentorship, cohort calls, and feedback.

You can't enroll in both tracks at the same time. Each track's workload is about the same as a part-time job, and the two cohorts meet at the same time for weekly calls. If you want to do the other track in the future, see the next question.

What if I finish one track and want to come back to do another in the future?

You can, for an additional fee. You'd join the other track at Week 10 alongside a future cohort, pending a brief review process to confirm re-acceptance into the program. You won't repeat the weeks of business foundations.

If you come back for the Career Launch Track, the job offer guarantee and terms apply to you, just as they do for anyone who starts that track.

What are the eligibility requirements for the job offer guarantee?

Specific eligibility requirements and guarantee terms are covered in the application process and in the Accelerate program terms.
