About WCEDA's Kareers4Kids Program:
This program has been designed with one goal in mind: to help students plan their futures. By connecting students with hands-on, career-based learning experiences, K4K helps students apply their academic and technical skills in the real world of work while also developing essential workplace skills critical to their future employment success.
Providing career-based learning opportunities is mutually beneficial to schools and companies:
- INVESTING IN THE FUTURE WORKFORCE. Working with students will help expand the pool of job applicants and their skill sets in the future. Career-Based Learning Experiences are an early recruitment strategy.
- INFORMING THE FUTURE WORKFORCE about occupations businesses employ and the skills businesses look for when hiring.
- CONTRIBUTING TO K-12 CURRICULUM by hosting educators at your work site and partnering with educators on the development of skills-based career pathways.
- IMPROVING EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT. Employee knowledge of roles and responsibilities are reviewed and reinforced and mentoring students can be rewarding for employees.
- CREATING POSITIVE COMMUNITY VISIBILITY FOR YOUR COMPANY by providing a visible example of your partnership with schools and students to maintain good community relations, and providing an opportunity to promote the company as an employer of choice. In addition, people will gain awareness of what your company does. Oftentimes people know the name of a company, but not the breadth of what happens on the inside.
- EXPOSING STUDENTS TO WORK CULTURE AND TEAMWORK. Students discover and learn about the working world and begin to understand company culture and what it means to work as a team.
