Houston ISD career opportunities for person that have a four year BS degree other than education.

Registration for the cohort will start on September 22, 2018 but the actual cohort does not start until May.  We are trying to get as many of our citizens employed.  If someone enters our program in the summer they could possibly be working and making 52k by August next year.  It’s an alternate opportunity for those that are not currently working in their fields.

I think this will be a great opportunity for you to introduce a get our college grads to work plan!

Please add this flyer to your newsletter as often as possible and add me to your groups.

Many thanks in advance.
