As high school graduation projects become increasingly career focused, employers can play an important role in giving content advice to students completing these projects. Graduation project advisory can include providing students with an interview subject to acting as judge/evaluator of the final project. What needs to be accomplished? Employers should identify employees who are willing to respond to student inquiries and/or act as project evaluators. What is the benefit? Graduation projects are an excellent opportunity for students’ career exploration. By advising students’ graduation projects, employers provide important content expertise.
The Pittsburgh Regional Compact is an employer-driven initiative collaboratively sponsored by the Allegheny Conference on Community Development, business leaders, educators, students, educational institutions and workforce development organizations across the 10-county Pittsburgh region.
