What Is Houston Back On Track?

Houston Back On Track is an employer-led job recovery initiative with a mission to help get you and other Houstonians back on your feet. We sought Houston employers with current openings for quality, future-focused jobs. We forged community and education partnerships to help provide access to short-term training, certification programs and career coaching. Together with our business, education and community partners, we’ll give you the confidence and preparation you need to find a more rewarding career and brighter future.

We’re here to help, whether you’re looking to change careers or find a new opportunity within your own field. With your commitment and our guidance, we’ll get you where you want to go.

Important Houston Career Stats

214,000+ Houstonians lost their jobs due to the  pandemic.
