I can commit to this time

Offering high school students, a shadow day is a great way to introduce them to career opportunities in a particular industry. Shadowing one job, or multiple jobs, enables students to discover careers they want to pursue. It offers practical experience and insight into the typical duties and responsibilities of a position.

Goals & Purpose

Through job shadowing, student will get an opportunity to observe the professionals from the field they aspire to work in. It is similar to on-job training to ensure they gain some practical experience before officially entering the professional world. As a result, when they get placed as employees in different firms or organizations, they are able to now effectively apply the new skills and knowledge they gained from the experience straight into their field of interest.
