A pathway to leadership roles in the social sector

Go beyond volunteering,
Build a sustainable career in social impact
2nd Careers in Impact is NOT a weekend course, it is a pathway to leadership roles in the social sector. It is designed to give you sector knowledge, hands-on experience, and placement support to make the transition with confidence.
India’s social sector needs program directors, strategy leads, and operations heads, not just volunteers. These are paid leadership roles that need experienced professionals.
2nd Careers in Impact is a structured 2-month pathway comprising of,
- 2 Months Sector Immersion
- 40 Hours Live Projects
- 6 Months Placement Support
The program aims to bridge the talent gap in mid-to-senior roles in the social sector.
