Objective
Empower local students as the heroes of their own career journeys by deploying engaging classroom guest speakers who demystify industry pathways and inspire early recruitment.
Facilitation Strategies:

• Organize a "Day in the Life" career panel where guest speakers from diverse backgrounds share their personal journeys into the construction trades.
• Coordinate interactive jobsite tours led by guest speakers to give students first-hand experience of active construction projects and industry technology.
• Facilitate a post-presentation speed mentoring session where guest speakers connect one-on-one with students to discuss career pathways and answer questions.
