JumpStart NYC is a proven, three-month educational program to help unemployed professionals apply their knowledge, skills, and abilities in opportunities at small, entrepreneurial companies.  JumpStart NYC is open to all unemployed professionals who have a minimum of a 4-year college degree and who reside in New York City. 

 

One of Mayor Bloomberg’s initiatives to boost the New York City economy, JumpStart NYC has successfully delivered eight programs that help participants develop new skills, sample the environment at small, entrepreneurial companies/non-profits, and explore opportunities in New York’s entrepreneurial firms – including New York City's budding "green" sector – in many cases creating new career paths and opportunities.
 
JumpStartNYC was initiated by the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC).  Its courses, events and seminars were developed by The Levin Institute (SUNY), and there's no cost to you.
