The Pathways Foundation designs and runs AI education and career programs for student-athletes, pro athletes and youth. Partners bring the athletes. We bring the curriculum, the credentials, the mentors and the delivery.
Each program stands on its own. Together they take an athlete from a first look at AI all the way to a career. Pick the one that fits your athletes, or talk to us about combining them.
A seven-week, internship-grade cohort built around the athletic calendar.
High-energy summits where youth athletes solve real problems alongside the pros using AI.
Industry-standard Google credentials, fully funded and supported by The Pathways Foundation.
Portfolio building, interview coaching and a hiring partner network for the final mile.
The career payoff of an internship, in a format built around the athletic calendar.
Traditional internships weren't built for athletes. Training, travel and season schedules make a 9-to-5 placement nearly impossible, and too many athletes graduate without one. Proven with Michigan Athletics and Athletes Unlimited, every cohort is run end-to-end by our team.
Three partners, three very different calendars, one model. Meet the athletes, the guest speakers and the capstone sponsors behind each cohort.
Run with Michigan's Graham Family Athletics Career Center. University of Michigan student-athletes earned a Google AI credential and solved a real business challenge with a company sponsor.
Pro athletes from basketball, volleyball, lacrosse and softball building AI skills around their playing schedules, with sessions led by founders, executives and former pros.
As PAC's official nonprofit AI education partner, we're training current and former pros who are now founders, executives, coaches and advisors to put AI to work in the careers and companies they're building after sport.
Where the field meets the future.
High-energy summits where youth athletes solve real-world problems alongside the pros using AI. Host one at your school or venue, or sponsor a summit for the young people in your community.
Students work side by side with pro athletes and industry mentors, not from the back of an auditorium.
Teams use AI tools to build and test their own ideas, so the technology is something they do, not something they hear about.
Every team pitches its solution to a panel and gets real feedback on the idea and the delivery.
Career, technology and life skills that last longer than any one season.
Globally recognized. Athlete approved.
Athletes earn industry-standard tech credentials from Google, fully funded and supported by The Pathways Foundation. Partners can sponsor seats for their own athletes or for athletes in our network.
From certification to career.
A credential opens the door. We help athletes through the final mile of their transition, and we connect employers with talent that already knows how to prepare, compete and deliver.
Whether you lead an athletic department, a league, a school or a hiring team, tell us who you serve and what you want them to walk away with. We will come back with a program shaped around their schedule.
