Hi everyone,

I’m looking into Day 1 CPT programs in California (e.g. Westcliff and Sofia) and want to understand if it’s feasible to do CPT at a startup (very early stage) where I am a co-founder.

I’ve seen conflicting information online, but does anyone have any experience or know someone who has successfully navigated this?

For example; Did the DSO approve CPT for your own startup, how was the employer/employee relationship structured, what specific proof did the DSO ask for?

Any firsthand experiences, pitfalls to avoid or school recommendations would be very appreciated. Thanks so much!
