CKA SAVE Project

"A student-athlete's identity should never be binary." — Roland Hairston III, VIP Project Manager

Too many elite athletes sacrifice their long-term career readiness for short-term eligibility. When their time in the jersey ends, they are left facing a massive structural void: The Resume Gap.

In our new blog post, we break down how the CKA SAVE Project is tackling this crisis head-on. By enforcing the 100/100 Standard, we demand the same competitive urgency off the field that our athletes showcase on it.

Through our innovative CKA Virtual Internship Program (CKA VIP), we’ve built a 100% asynchronous, location-agnostic incubator. Our interns are building high-level executive portfolios from hotel lobbies and team buses, gaining critical corporate experience without compromising their demanding athletic schedules.

Whether you are a parent looking for an expert "Academic General Manager" to protect your child's future, an athletic department looking to scale your life-skills footprint, or a corporate partner wanting early access to a pipeline of disciplined talent—this framework is for you.

Check out the full breakdown and see how we are leveraging this year’s Exceptional Service Award as a launchpad for the next generation of holistic excellence!
