Our Approach
Cara Institute is for individuals and organizations who want to learn effective workforce development practices to help individuals prepare for, get, and keep jobs. Several times a year, we bring in cohorts of organizations for shadowing, immersion, and peer-to-peer learning with practitioners to strengthen their model and impact. Cohorts typically run from two to five days.
