Advanced Manufacturing Career Collective (AMCC)

The City University of New York (CUNY) Advanced Manufacturing Career Collective (AMCC) will create a pipeline of skilled, diverse talent into advanced manufacturing careers through educational and work-based learning experiences.

This effort will engage and train an estimated 400 students in year one, scaling up to support over 1,000 New Yorkers annually. AMCC will also strengthen the overall ecosystem of MWBEs focused on advanced manufacturing. This collaboration is with MOYE, CUNY and the Small Business Services' (SBS) Manufacturing Industrial and Innovation Council (MaiiC).

Civil Service Pathways (CSP)

Civil Service Pathways (CSP) is a fellowship for recent CUNY graduates in partnership with the Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS), and the Mayor's Office of Youth Employment (MOYE). This initiative helps connect graduates with rewarding careers in City government.

The fellowships are full-time and offer competitive pay and benefits. Fellows receive professional development opportunities, specialized training based on their career track, and have an opportunity to network with other professionals in City government.

Three high-demand career tracks are covered by the fellowship: policy and program analysis, data and digital services, and procurement and finance.  This collaboration is with CUNY and DCAS and is projected to place 50 fellows per year.
