Summit Academy OIC (SAOIC) is a nonprofit educational and vocational training center that empowers adults and prepares youth residing in the most economically depressed neighborhoods in the Twin Cities to become educated, employed contributing members of their community.
In 1996, two well-established training and job placement programs, Twin Cities Opportunities Industrialization Center (TCOIC) and Two or More merged to form Summit Academy OIC. The merger of these two entities created a stronger, more effective organization that has positively impacted the lives of thousands of individuals.
Located in the Heritage Park neighborhood of North Minneapolis, Summit Academy OIC is the only community-based vocational training and job placement program in North Minneapolis. SAOIC is accredited by the North Central Association Commission on Schools and is registered with the Minnesota Higher Education offices.
