Program Overview

Praxis is an 8-month online career program for young adults who want an alternative to a four-year degree. Because it is fully online, you can complete the entire program from anywhere in the world, whether you are traveling, living abroad, or taking a gap year.

The program runs in two phases. Incubate is a 6-week foundation where you learn to work independently, network authentically, and create value (about 10 hours a week). Accelerate is a roughly 6-month phase where you build in-demand skills across sales, marketing, operations, and customer success, work one-on-one with a mentor, and build a portfolio of real projects (about 20 hours a week).

In the second half of Accelerate, you run a supported job search with warm introductions to employers in the Praxis hiring-partner network, plus coaching on resumes and interviews. It comes with a job offer guarantee for participants who are eligible to work in the US and willing to relocate within the US.

Most participants are between 17 and 25. Incubate is $850 and Accelerate is $6,650, for $7,500 total, with new cohorts throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to all the most common questions about Praxis Careers.

How much time does the program take each week?

Plan on about 10 hours a week during Incubate (phase one, 6 weeks) and about 20 hours a week during Accelerate (phase 2, 6 months). The program is built around one live workshop hosted on Zoom each week with self-directed work in between, so you can fit it around travel, a job, or other commitments.

What kinds of careers does Praxis prepare me for?

You build skills across sales, marketing, operations, and customer success, the roles fast-growing companies hire for most. During Accelerate you develop a specialty and a portfolio of real projects, so you graduate ready to step into a paid role, not just holding a certificate.

How do the two phases work together?

Praxis works in two connected phases. Incubate is a 6-week foundation where you build the habits, mindset, and networking skills of a self-directed career. By demonstrating growth and engaging with the curriculum, you earn your path into Accelerate: the roughly 6-month phase where you build skills across sales, marketing, operations, and customer success, work with a mentor, create a portfolio of real projects, and run a supported job search.

When can I start?

New cohorts begin throughout the year, so you rarely wait long to start. You enroll in Incubate on the Praxis website to claim your spot, then begin with your cohort on the next start date. Check the site for upcoming dates.

How do I get into Praxis?

Getting started is simple. There is no application for Incubate: if you are a young adult ready to build your career, you just enroll and pay the $850 fee to join the next cohort. From there, how you show up in Incubate becomes your application into Accelerate, so you earn your spot in the second phase through real participation, not paperwork.
