For its fourth annual Credo for Change accelerator program, the retailer has partnered with the Fashion Institute of Technology for the first time to offer students enrolled in the cosmetics and fragrance marketing program career mentorship.
The 13-week program will kick off July 7, offering 12 Black, Indigenous, people of color students access to speaker sessions, internship seats and one-on-one mentoring.
“The aspect of the program that resonated with me the most is that it isn’t just focused on helping students build a brand — we want students to understand there are these other opportunities for their talents,” said Nicole Finigan Ndzibah, executive director of the Social Justice Center at FIT. Johnson added: “We know that people want to choose their own destiny, so we want to give them the leadership skills to do that and reduce the amount of loneliness that comes from having to figure it out by yourself.”
This year’s cohort will hear from a variety of merchants, marketing experts and “behind-the-scenes movers and shakers,” Johnson said.
