Launchpad Academy Purpose

Launchpad partners students and industry to create a learning environment that reaches beyond classroom fundamentals.

This experience can help bridge the gap between what is learned in the classroom and what to expect in a career. These partnerships also create highly employable graduates who are more likely to gain employment and be successful in their chosen occupations, which benefits themselves and the community. The curated ecosystem allows industry direct access to the talent pipeline at Clayton State, an under-tapped market in the Atlanta area. This not only benefits students but also provides businesses with an opportunity to bring in new, diverse perspectives.
