PAST PARTICIPANT FEEDBACK
The 2-day Externship was a fantastic experience! The opportunity to go in-person to see and experience the different career opportunities, and the education pathways to those careers, in the health, technology and manufacturing industries has given my team and I many ideas on how we can improve our career exploration programming for our middle school students.
Emily Russ, Assistant Principal, Avon Middle School
As educators and parents, we often steer students in the direction of things that we know about. In today's workforce, however, there are so many different opportunities that never existed before. In addition, careers like manufacturing have changed so much that we need to update our viewpoints.
Beth Scwartz, Technology Innovation Specialist, Amherst Schools
My biggest take away was how many job opportunities there are in our area for kids not college bound. Also how many opportunities there are at LCCC!!! I cannot believe that they have two bachelor programs now. There are so many local opportunities for students that I am sure they are not aware of either.
