Access Academies Young Professionals

Access Academies is excited to partner with Career & College Clubs, a not-for-profit focused on college and career readiness, to develop a school-based enrichment curriculum known as the Access Academies Young Professionals.

– Develop and use leadership skills as mentor leaders
– Discover educational post-secondary opportunities
– Learn about personal banking and explore options for paying for college
– Study and practice professional etiquette

The Access Academies Young Professionals curriculum is aligned with grades 6-8 Common Core State Standards and the American School Counselor Association National Standards for Students. To learn more, please contact Tom Mackowiak, Executive Director, by calling (314) 898-0430.
