Our Impact

We build free practice for people getting ready for casino dealer jobs. We will count what happens and publish it. Nothing to report yet.

The Gate

A dealer job usually needs a high school diploma and can lead to floor supervisor. The audition decides who gets in. Getting ready takes weeks of practice. Private schools charge tuition, and free casino schools can fill up.

The Dealer Pathway

This is the plan. The casino makes the hire.

The Dealer Pathway: learners practice free, get live reps, find jobs and audition; casinos hire; partners and funders feed the path; outcome data is published every year Workforce Partners Workforce boards, colleges, unions Funders Training funds, grants The Ladder Second game, then supervisor referrals $ training seats hired; some move up Learners Job seekers, dealers Dealer Path Free core practice First Table Live reps, dealers paid Dealer Jobs Schools and jobs Casinos Hire The audition decides Core practice free $ flat license fees Outcome Data Training, skills, hires, retention, ladder Impact Note Every year, misses included fixes where people get stuck with consent, totals only The Dealer Pathway, top to bottom: partners and funders feed learners, who practice free, get live reps, find jobs, and are hired by casinos; outcome data is published every year Partners Workforce boards Funders Training funds Learners Free practice, free job board Dealer Path Free core practice First Table Live reps, mock audition Dealer Jobs Schools, jobs, pay shown Casinos Hire The audition decides The Ladder Second game, supervisor $ flat license fees with consent, totals only Outcome Data Training, skills, hires, retention Impact Note Every year, misses included
The dealer's pathPartners and fundersWhere money comes in
  1. Learners are job seekers and working dealers, first in the neighborhoods where casinos set goals to hire. Core practice and Dealer Jobs are free.
  2. Workforce partners can refer people and put the Dealer Path inside their classes. We are reaching out first to Michigan Works, NYC Workforce1 centers, CUNY and union training funds. None signed yet.
  3. The Dealer Path is free graded practice at its core. Dealer Pro, coming soon, will add more games and answers from Tychon, our AI coach. Each dealer will get a progress report that shows how their skills moved.
  4. First Table will give dealers paid live reps at a real table with play chips, coached feedback and a mock audition, starting in 2027. A dealer can choose to share clips of their own dealing.
  5. Dealer Jobs lists free dealer schools. Job posts will show pay. The dealer auditions, and the casino decides.
  6. Casinos hire, then dealers add a second game and can move up to floor supervisor. Casinos will pay flat license fees. In some states a public training fund may cover part of a live class.
  7. Outcome data will count who trained, how skills moved, who got hired, who stayed and who moved up. We will publish it every year, misses included.

What We Will Count

Dealers training

Everyone who starts the Dealer Path, and who practices each month.

Skills that moved

How each dealer's scores change over time.

Hired

People hired as dealers after practicing with us. Confirmed by the casino where we can, and shown apart when not.

Stayed

Still dealing six months and a year after they start.

Moved up

Dealers who add a second game or move up to floor supervisor.

We plan our first report for the end of 2027.

Our Goal by 2031

1,500people hired as dealers after practicing with us, in Michigan and New York. A goal.
9,200entry dealer openings in those two states, 2027 to 2031. Our estimate.
0hires to report today. Dealer Jobs opened Nov 10, 2026.

Where We Start

Michigan

Mount Pleasant and Detroit first. We are reaching out to the workforce boards, colleges and casinos that already train dealers.

New York

Queens and the Bronx, where three casinos set goals to hire from the neighborhood.

Our Rules

  • Dealers never pay to find a job or be hired. Core practice is free.
  • Play money only.
  • Casinos create the jobs, and the audition decides. We never promise a job.
  • We never rank dealers or send employers scores. A dealer can choose to share their own record.
  • We will publish what we count every year, misses included.

How Tychon will count

  • We will count everyone who starts, not only the people who finish.
  • Casino-confirmed hires and hires a dealer tells us about will be shown apart, never added together.
  • Every count will be a total. No group smaller than 10 will be shown.
  • A dealer will choose what we may follow up on, and can change their mind.
  • We make no claim about anyone's pay.

Our hiring count will follow the IRIS+ rule: only people who started work. We will self-assess each year against the UNDP SDG Impact Standards for Enterprises and align with SDG targets 8.5 and 4.4. Self-assessed only.

Where the numbers come from

  • 9,200 openings is our estimate: replacement openings from state job projections, new tables at the New York City casinos, and turnover. Low 6,700, high 14,200.
  • 1,500 hired is a goal. Low case 450, high case 2,800. No hires yet.
  • Most of the goal would come through partner dealer classes, where we would add practice. About 340 would come from outside any class. No partner is signed yet.
  • Casinos create the jobs. We will count the people we helped get ready.
