At OIC Philadelphia, our mission is dedicated to the elimination of poverty, unemployment, and illiteracy through education and job training. We believe in the transformative power of vocational education and the boundless potential of every individual.
At OIC Philadelphia, we go beyond the ordinary training center. Our vision is to create 5,000 good jobs per year for North Philadelphians within ten years. Since 1964, OIC has equipped tens of thousands of Philadelphians with real-world skills and valuable experience that prepare them for personally fulfilling and financially rewarding careers.
Founded by the late Reverend Dr. Leon H. Sullivan in 1964, OIC Philadelphia's legacy is built on a strong foundation of empowerment, excellence, and growth. We are committed to creating a brighter future for our community, one individual at a time.
