WHY WE
PROPEL
THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT IS CHANGING.
Yesterday’s solutions will not solve tomorrow’s challenges. These changes require that we train tomorrow’s leaders in a way that leverages technology for creative and dynamic problem solving. History has demonstrated how Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) can drive transformative change and elevate the way people of color see and experience the world. Propel Center will serve as a catalytic epicenter of learning that provides HBCU students with the knowledge, skills, tools and resources necessary to transform our nation’s talent pipeline and workforce. Our vision is to build generations of black leaders who advance equity and justice through technology, entrepreneurship, education and social impact.

The Virtual Campus
PROPEL ONLINE
More than ever, technology is needed to connect students to learning. Propel provides virtual access to best-in-class learning experiences through a state-of-the-art online digital platform that will be accessible to every HBCU student located anywhere across America, or even the world. With a commitment to increasing learner engagement, Propel will use this technology to engage students in virtual master classes delivered by the nation’s most respected faculty in higher education and the world’s most influential business minds across industries and entrepreneurship. We envision using this technology to engage thought leaders like Spike Lee, Jack Ma, Lisa Jackson and Tom Fanning, and then connect them to students to broaden what they believe is possible. Through Propel's virtual campus, HBCU students can learn from anywhere.
