Our Community Partners 

CCNY's College Now

College Now at City College (CCNY) enables New York City public high school students to enroll in College courses, giving students early exposure to academic life in College. High school students also have access to CCNY’s facilities, and are encouraged to take part in campus activities. Students also have the opportunity to interact with CCNY faculty and other students to build relationships, easing the transition from high school to college. The City Tutors have partnered up with College Now to supplement the student’s learning through tutoring and mentoring.

RAP-SI

RAP-SI (Retention, Achievement, Professionalism Success Institute) is a CCNY mentoring program, a project of the CUNY’s Black Male Initiative (BMI). They aim to improve the retention and success of black males through peer mentoring, textbook loans, and workshops. The City Tutors have partnered with RAP-SI to provide them with trained tutors that will volunteer as peer mentors to work with underachieving students to achieve success.
The Continuing Professional Studies Program is committed to making quality educational programs available to the community. At CPS we understand that learning is a lifelong process. We also realize that today's unstable economy requires the continuous self-improvement of those who currently have jobs as well as those seeking employment. Our mission is to support students of all ages as they prepare for college, transition to new careers, and/or upgrade their skills. Each semester we offer over thirteen Certificate Programs, more than ten seminars, and a variety of workshops focused on professional certification. Courses and workshops offered in the past include English as a Second Language; preparation for the GED; skills assessment; and training workshops for women in non-traditional fields such as the construction industry. We have also developed after-school programs as part of our mission to offer community support.
