Speakers Needed for Career Day Event: All STEM-Related Backgrounds Welcome!
ORGANIZATION: nConnect
Please visit the new page to apply.
Seeking professionals working in STEM-related fields (engineering, computer science, IT, medicine and healthcare, research, design, forestry and natural resources, etc.) to share their careers with high school students!
For this opportunity, volunteers will work with small rotations of students to discuss what they do and how they got there, as well as sharing general insights with students and taking questions. This is a fun, casual way to help students learn about the types of occupations available to them, as well as how their education is pertinent to their futures.
We have one class periods for which we are seeking volunteers, running from 7:30-8:20 am, and we recommend volunteers arrive approx. 10 minutes before to sign in.
To sign up or for more information, please respond to this posting or email matthew.goosen@esd112.org.
Seniors and retirees are encouraged to join!
