Education Matters 10: Internships and Apprenticeships
Listen now
Description
Education Matters goes outside their “norm” this month by bringing on some unique guests – students! Tracy and Lamar welcome Logan and Jacob from local high schools to speak about their current internship and apprenticeship. Is it guiding them to their ideal career path? Or does the “real world” intimidate students? Sharon Turner, the Career Development Coordinator for Catawba County Schools, steps in to explain the benefits of programs like these and how local businesses are not only helping students prepare for the future, but are benefiting from the experience as well. Listen in and see how you, your children, or business could gain from this program!
