Category	Channel	Description	Admissions
Events	Undefined		Careerprise Orientation
Websites	worldopp.org	A network of websites, which shall use SEO in order to be searchable and which will direct the interested in to the admission page; some meetup photos can be used.
Internal social media	Undefined	Social media such as Facebook pages tend to be a highly attractive source. An occasional posting of one announcement at the OFF Facebook group this generated a huge number of applicants; Some meetup photos can be used.
Job-bidding sites	Upwork	This platform doesn't require payments, but Gary needed to pay thousands of dollars to the applicants. All in all, freelancers tend to work to earn money, not work to learn how to work
	Fiverr	This platform has similar potentials to Upwork
Learning platforms	Udemy	Hosting of some courses such as CNM Project Management Matriculation can possibly generate some applicants
Other public relations	Career Network Ministry	As a part of its leadership team, Gary distributed newsletters through https://www.meetup.com/mbc-cnm/ and they generate some folks
	Email newsletters	And other public relations campaigns.

Qualifications of the candidates

There are no qualifications for applicants -- based on Gary's experience, every 12-y.o. in the United States can make $45,000 a year after 9-months training. Older candidates often loose their creativity, curiosity, and open mind. In his 5 years, Gary had just two success stories with 55+ y.o. candidates. Both were ladies and previously worked in senior positions in other than IT industries.

Sourcing locations

There are no specific locations. American candidates bring much more money, but marketing is far more expensive. At the moment, Friends Of CNM also target areas outside the US with English as a primary language.

Challenges

We want to start with planning on how we eliminate or lessen the challenges to our start up business.

1. What are the qualifications we have for the candidates?
2. Since we want to lower the cost of sourcing, we want to know what are the current method of sourcing we have at the moment.
3. Communication
4. How to increase the effectiveness of the pipeline meaning how to get more excellent graduates out of the applicants
