NEW Business Partners

Under common circumstances, it is difficult for employers to know which local high school students may be interested in entering their field, while it is equally difficult for students to connect with local experts in their field of interest.

​Inspire breaks down these barriers, enabling employers, students, and educators to interact through a variety of real-world opportunities like job shadowing, employer profiles, teacher externships, and other work-based learning experiences.
