“Career Jam”
From the Office of the Superintendent of the Peru Central School
Does education meet the needs of the 21st century workplace? Students will be able to find out on Thursday, March 19, 2015, when seniors and juniors from Peru and Beekmantown Central School Districts embark on a new opportunity for post-secondary career planning.
The Career Jam, which was created as a collaborative effort among area school districts, ETS, Inc. and the Development Corporation will be held at Clinton Community College. Students will be introduced to a variety of exciting opportunities available right in their own community. Representatives from Camoplast, Spencer ARL, Plattsburgh Animal Hospital, Swarovski and several others will network with the next generation of hard working, energetic and eager future employees to introduce current and future job opportunities. Our Career Jam will provide alternatives to traditional post-secondary options and build up enthusiasm for a strong workforce to support our regional economy.
60 students are anticipated to attend Career Jam this year with the goal of expanding to include additional districts and more students next year.
