Ladder is now Nova and we have never been more excited to keep charging towards our mission with a fresh design and brand story.

Why Nova?

We originally chose the name Ladder for our platform because we wanted to help our community climb up their way to success through their career journey. However, we noticed that a ladder has a finite height while only allowing for vertical movement.

As we continued to explore what community-based professional development meant to us, we discovered that our career journeys are full of infinite exploration, bouncing between different communities, rediscovering passions, and constantly taking on new challenges. Your career journey doesn’t end when you land your first job, and neither should your time in our community. That’s why we are excited to introduce to you, Nova.

The Nova Universe

Nova is our take on redefining professional development for the next generation. Our mission has always been to democratize access to career resources for those of all backgrounds, which calls to break the limitations of what a traditional professional development platform may look like.

Nova is bold, colorful, and fluid, to reflect the limitlessness of career exploration and the expressiveness of our generation. Here, you will find galaxies of endless opportunities along with fellow voyagers, eventually landing among the furthest of planets. Let us be your bright, shining star and guide you through your next career endeavor.

Welcome to Nova.
