About the Collective
You should not have to figure out your career alone.
Beyond 9-5 is a community-driven initiative helping young career professionals thrive, grow and succeed at work. We make practical career knowledge and meaningful support easier to access.
More than a job. A bigger you.
The first years of a career shape the opportunities you pursue and the professional you become. Yet much of what helps you thrive — workplace judgement, relationships, credibility and career decisions — is rarely taught in a course or covered in workplace training.
B95 brings structured cohort learning, practical exercises, resources, mentorship and community together. Experienced professionals share real stories and applicable lessons, helping members understand both what to do and how to put it into practice.
Our long-term vision combines virtual learning with physical experiences and lasting professional relationships. Members graduate as B95 Fellows and continue growing within the Collective, from their early career into greater responsibility.
