JOB SHADOW WEEK
K12’s 2nd Annual Job Shadow Week is Open for Registration
Job Shadow Week is a national career readiness education initiative that exposes high school students to the world of work, and invites business professionals to share what they and their colleagues do, show students what their workplaces look like, and explain the training or education required to enter their field or company.
During the week of July 13-17th students will shadow companies, businesses, and industries through live sessions, recorded sessions, and additional content – all from the safety of their homes.
Job Shadow Week is available at no cost and is open to all students of public, private, charter, and virtual high schools.
Students can chat with industry experts from NASA, Motion Pictures Association, YouTube, Google, and many more!
For more information and to register, visit www.jobshadowweek.com.
