Career Videos

Today's students must be prepared for careers and continuing education in a challenging and rapidly changing workplace. In 2018, the division created a business advisory council, comprised of members of the York County Chamber of Commerce, to address the driving question, "How can we work together to prepare students for jobs and careers?"

The council established two objectives:

• To ensure students graduate with the skillset to be both college and career ready.
• To increase student and parent awareness of the job opportunities available in the trades and small business.

The result of these efforts included a series of videos featuring a variety of career options related to student interests, such as helping people and/or animals, experimenting and problem solving, and building things or creating. These videos, along with a mini-lesson, are shared over the course of the school year with students in the Career Investigations course.

We encourage parents to view the videos as well to have conversations with your children regarding their career aspirations.
