Business & Industry Partnerships

The primary goal of our Career and College Readiness program is to create and foster long term industry partnerships, to ensure the course curriculum remains applicable to “real-world” applications, and provide students with clear connections between their coursework and career opportunities.

Below are some examples of how industry partners can support our program:

• Provide support to the program and instructor  through curriculum development, mentoring and grants.
• Be an active member of the program advisory group.
• Provide industry expert guest speaking (we frequently use video conferencing for this).
• Provide tours of facilities to showcase sustainable principles.
• Provide job shadow, internships, and apprenticeship opportunities for students.
• Advise students for the year end capstone projects.
• Hosting and judging the year end capstone project tradeshow.
• Provide career coaching and scholarship awards to students.
