Vermont Works for Women and Burlington Technical Center are partnering to offer Career Challenge Day on Wednesday, May 11th, 11:45 AM - 2:15 PM
Students visit BTC classrooms, participate in a hands-on activity in each program and meet teachers, staff, and current students. They learn about education opportunities available through the tech center, with a special focus on programs nontraditional for girls and gender expansive youth (Aviation, Auto Tech, Design & Illustration, etc.). VWW organizes welcome and closing activities that create a culture of exploration, confidence, and positive risk-taking. Our goal is for students to leave feeling empowered to dream big about their futures.
