Career Exploration Session Sponsors
Career Exploration Sessions invite professionals from an occupational area to discuss their profession and educational background to a large group of students. The professionals give real-world insight into the reality of their job.
All Career Exploration Sessions are run virtually, following a specific session plan template. Career Transitions works closely with hosts to create an experience that is as engaging and interactive as possible. Video footage shot on location is added whenever possible so that more visuals are shared with students.
Registration can be done by either the school or the student, with no forms required to participate.
Sessions generally run between 4:00 and 6:00pm on designated dates. See “Career Exploration Session Options 2022-2023 – Register here” tab below to see dates – please note, these will be updated continuously as dates are confirmed by hosts – CHECK BACK OFTEN!
All sessions are recorded and posted on the website within 5 days of the session under “Career Exploration Session Recording Links”.
