Cañada College STEM Job Shadowing Week
POSTPONED UNTIL APRIL, DATE TBD:
JH Technologies hosting STEM student shadow program
Cañada College is a community college located in Redwood City, CA. We provide a gateway to higher education for local students, many of whom are from low-income, minority backgrounds and are the first person in their family to attend college.
The STEM Center provides wrap-around support to enable our students to transfer to four-year universities as STEM majors and succeed in STEM careers.
WHAT IS JOB SHADOWING?
As the majority of our students do not have family members who work in the STEM field, job shadowing allows students to experience what working in their chosen field entails. Students are partnered one-on-one with a professional and have a chance to try out “a-day-in-the-life” of a STEM professional.
WHY SHOULD COMPANIES PARTICIPATE?
This is an excellent opportunity to give back to the community and help build the pipeline of potential future STEM professionals. Spending time with these talented and motivated students will be a rewarding experience for employees.
