The NACSA program is an online professional development curriculum for Native youth. The curriculum consists of two modules: Career Preparation and Navigating Your Real Costs. The coursework is designed to help Native youth develop the skill set and confidence required to become financially responsible young adults and successful young professionals.

The holidays are a great time to register and complete this curriculum. On average, it takes about 7-10 hours to complete both modules.

Successful completion of the NACSA curriculum makes youth 18-24 years old eligible for our Gen-I Career Success Fellowship. The fellowship program is designed to help students discover and articulate their career interests and prepare them for success in their chosen career.

Fellows will receive an all expense paid trip to New Orleans, LA in April 2018 to participate in a day-long Leadership Summit prior to attending the Annual NAFOA Conference. There, they will attend networking events and luncheons, as well as track sessions and participate in off-site visits.
