Worksite visits, Job Tours, and Job Shadowing
These career voyages provide exposure to various career options, particularly those identified as career clusters in demand within Southwestern Pennsylvania. These career exploration experiences are critical to help youth envision and “see” themselves in a career. Participants will learn important information on the type of educational needed, the details of job performance, and salary expectations. Additionally, this component helps youth gain practical knowledge about careers, enabling youth to test their interests. There is no fee for this service.
