The creative career lab
Join the Creative Career Lab, Get Lit's year-long professional development program that runs from July 2024-May 2025. The Creative Career Lab prepares young professionals ages 18-28 to thrive in a full-time position in the creative and nonprofit sectors. Graduates will receive support finding–and the skills to excel at–a dream job!
- Learn from weekly workshops and one-on-one mentoring from industry leaders
- Meet top professionals at creative companies, nonprofits, and startups
- Graduate with a professional resume, letters of recommendation, certifications, and support finding full-time employment
Get Lit's Creative Career Lab is funded by the California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) through the California Community Reinvestment Grants Program (CalCRG). This program aims to address the impact that the War on Drugs had on marginalized communities, creating a bridge to success for young adults affected by these policies through critical professional training, connections, and paid job placement.
Welcome to Get Lit’s Creative Career Lab. Let’s get to work.
