Did your company or school participate in this year's Students@Work week? A collaboration between First Gentleman Bob Eaves and NCBCE, the initiative brings attention to the value of work-based learning for students beginning as early as middle school.
You can still get involved! F4K has created a virtual space to streamline communicating and scheduling work-based learning
so opportunities will continue to be readily accessible.
Join one of the webinars listed below to learn what you can do
