The Counselor workshop is intended to provide school guidance counselors and directors with local career information and hiring practices allowing them to expand and enrich the options and opportunities they present to their students. Visits to area business partners will be used to provide counselors with an understanding of how the work-world applies the curriculum (i.e, science, technology, writing, reading and math concepts…) as well as the skills, aptitudes and attitudes necessary for entry and survival in today’s and tomorrow’s work environment. The tour should provide an opportunity for the guidance counselors to formulate industry perceptions, recognize successful job search strategies, have examples of skills sought when hiring entry level and experienced people and get a pulse for the projected hiring trends.
Our next workshop is scheduled for Spring 2021!
