BECOME a Partner: Powered by Basta
Powered by Basta is a partnership model for youth-serving organizations to level up their career guidance. Basta works directly with career coaches, staff, and students to enhance career readiness. We equip you with the right knowledge and tools to launch students into thriving careers.
“Bringing together our academic experience with Basta's career-readiness expertise will allow us to assist our students more holistically and become the central support system they need.”
- Aderys Adames, Cypress Hills (a Powered by Basta partner)
Based on what we learned from our community of over 5,000 Basta participants, we designed DISCOVERY, AN À la carte and synchronous career readiness program for young people.
