Impact Accelerator Program for EA Professionals

By High Impact Professionals @ 2024-05-10T01:34 (+38)

High Impact Professionals is excited to announce that applications are now open for the Summer 2024 round of our Impact Accelerator Program (IAP). The IAP is a 6-week program designed to equip experienced EA-aligned professionals (not currently working at an EA organization) with the knowledge and tools necessary to make a meaningful impact and empower them to start taking actionable steps right away. 

To date, the program has been a success, with several alumni having already changed careers to new impactful roles and nearly all participants planning to do the same in the next ~6 months. IAP alumni are also volunteering an average of ~100 hours at EA-aligned orgs/projects and donating on average more than 7% of their annual salary to effective charities. We are currently running the Spring 2024 round, which features a larger number of participants and cohorts.

We’re pleased to open up this new Summer 2024 program round, which will start the week of July 15. More information is available below and here. Please apply here by May 23.

At the end of the program, a participant should have a good answer to the question “How can I have the most impact with my career, and what are my next steps?”, and they should have taken the first steps in that direction.

Is there any chance that you could make the content publicly available?

Hi, Chris. Thanks for your question. We’re giving that possibility serious consideration and may release the content more broadly in the (potentially near) future. If we do, we will be sure to let the EA community know via the Forum and other channels. Though not nearly as robust as the full content, for the time being, please feel free to refer to the FAQ section of the IAP page on our website for an overview of each of the program's core 6 weeks: https://www.highimpactprofessionals.org/impact-accelerator-program.
