High Impact Professionals (HIP) is excited to announce that applications are now open for the next round of our Impact Accelerator Program (IAP). The IAP is a 6-week program designed to equip experienced (mid-career/senior) professionals (not currently working at a high-impact organization) with the knowledge and tools necessary to make a meaningful impact and empower them to start taking actionable steps right away.

To date, the program’s high action focus has proven to be successful:

38 participants (out of 143 in total) from our first four program rounds have transitioned into high-impact careers, through various paths, including founding new charities, starting founding-to-give companies, and joining high-impact organizations such as GiveWell, Charity Entrepreneurship, ML Alignment & Theory Scholars (MATS), Malaria Consortium, and more;
an additional 70 participants (out of 143) are taking concrete actions towards a high-impact career, including skilled volunteering roles at high-impact organizations; and
many participants are donating a meaningful percentage of their annual salary to effective charities, with 18 having taken the 🔶 10% Pledge or 🔷 Trial Pledge – plus 8 additional pledges from the current IAP round.

We’re pleased to open up this new program round, which will start the week of June 16. More information is available below and here.

Please apply here by April 27.

Program Objectives

The IAP is set up to help participants:

take concrete, impactful actions, and

At the end of the program, a participant should have a good answer to the question “How can I have the most impact with my career, and what are my next steps?”, and they should have taken the first steps in that direction.
