LaunchPath Connects Your Biz to Quality Interns

Get Connected to Quality Interns through the Innovative LaunchPath Online Platform!

LaunchPath involves employers, educators, and students in a collaborative effort to strengthen our workforce through an innovative online matching system.

During the pilot phase, the Sacramento Asian Pacific Chamber of Commerce will be working with employers, California Community Colleges, and Linked Learning high schools in the Sacramento region to create meaningful experiences that align with students' fields of study.

Employers in the pilot program will be able to take advantage of an advanced matching and badging platform that identifies students with the right interests and experiences and simplifies the process of creating beneficial work-based learning experiences. Research has found that Linked Learning increases high school graduation rates, college attendance rates, and success in college.

Participating companies include:
3Fold Communications
Five Star Bank
PG&E
SMUD
Valley Vision
Western Health Advantage

Employers in the Sacramento region are invited to join the Sacramento Region Pilot Program. For more info, contact Pallavi Shimoda at pshimoda@calasiancc.org or 916-446-7883.
