Mission

Tpz's program is a steam-infused and entrepreneurship-focused youth development and career-readiness program for high school students from historically under-resourced communities. This tuition-free program represents an investment in each student for 3+ years, taking students on a journey where they tap into their creativity, cultivate key durable and 21st century skills, build strong relationships with supportive adults and peers, and broaden their sense of what is possible in their futures. Our multi-faceted, tuition-free program uses: 1) competency-based curriculum, with a focus on developing skills that are critical for career success, particularly in growing, future-focused industries; 2) hands-on steam exploration and real-world, work-based learning opportunities with local companies and in tpz's in-house enterprises; and 3) personalized college and career advising to inspire students' imaginations, and key network building to launch successful post-secondary pathways.

Programs

1 program

Tpz ventures: through tpz ventures, tpz also delivers the tpz launch program, through which qualified young adults from tpz's target communities, including tpz alumni, are hired as the founding teams of pre-ideation ventures that we build together from the ground up in a curated "sprint" to launch physical consumer products. Tpz launch participants, known as "founding associates," develop product development and product management skills as they position themselves for their future careers at tpz or elsewhere.
