RepresentED prepares high-potential nontraditional students for leadership roles in the private and public sector through rigorous selection, training, mentorship and internship opportunities. Our students are chosen for their innate leadership qualities, and are taught to develop them through our design thinking curriculum to become empathetic, impact-driven changemakers of the future.

What does a summer of career exploration look like?

This summer, we supported 181 emerging professionals across the Bay Area. New experiences. New relationships. New skills put into practice.

This summer, our work across EPP, KP Launch, CEE, and Berkeley Community Scholars created opportunities for emerging professionals to explore what’s possible and take meaningful steps forward. These photos capture just a few of those moments, and we’re grateful to every participant, partner, and team member who made them possible.

A special thank you to the restaurants in our neighborhood who sponsored the evening, Mama Oakland and ABURAYA ✨
