Our team accomplishes this through engaging local employers across industry sectors in work-based learning programming for schools through facility tours, job shadows, internships, professionalism workshops and guest speakers. We also collaborate with partners to facilitate larger events and initiatives to foster an interest in the STEM career pathways in our community. During the 2021-22 school year, our team engaged over 120 businesses with almost 400 activities!

When tomorrow’s workforce is equipped to pursue their potential, we cultivate a stronger community and thriving industries. Let us help you explore the possibilities of connecting with students and preparing them to be first in line with your company to keep talent here in Central New York.
STUDENTS
Explore local career pathways.
Our team knows the importance of finding the right fit. We want you to feel empowered to find a career that aligns with your passion, not just a job.
