Beyond Internships: Reimagining Youth Development

Description:

In an evolving job market, traditional internships often fall short in providing the depth of experience and skill development that today's youth need to thrive. This panel, led by CareerWise, explores the transformative potential of youth apprenticeships as a superior alternative for career readiness and personal growth. By integrating on-the-job training with academic learning, apprenticeships offer a holistic approach to education that bridges the gap between school and work.
