Project Zero Degrees

According to the latest data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are dozens of job categories that pay at least $55,000 per year without the need a four-year degree to pursue.

The Bureau doesn't take into account entrepreneurship, or the technologies that are breaking ground right now, or the skill sets that people need to take control of their value.  

That where Project Zero Degrees comes into play. We'll bring the know-how if you'll bring the will. We're a rolling conference series focused on NYC Housing Authority (NYCHA) talent development.
