The Academic Exit Program will involve ~5 hours of work per week to ensure your continued forward momentum towards landing an industry job.

This means actively carving out time and space for your job search every week.

If you have a full-time job now, this time will be carved out alongside your job.

If you are writing your dissertation, this time will need to be carved out alongside time invested in your dissertation. 

Are you committed to investing that time?

The total cost of the Academic Exit Program is $1800.  

Are you committed to investing this amount in yourself and your career?
