Gary Job Corps Participates In Groundhog Job Shadow Day Activities

Since 1999, this initiative to engage students in employment settings has paired student “shadows” with” workplace mentors” to demonstrate connections between academic and technical skills to careers. 

As the Groundhog got ready to look for his shadow, Gary Job Corps joined thousands of employers and students throughout the country who took part in “Groundhog Job Shadow Day,” during the first week of February. 

Since 1999, this initiative to engage students in employment settings has paired student “shadows” with” workplace mentors” to demonstrate connections between academic and technical skills to careers. 

The Corrections and Security students that Shadowed the Constables had a “Day in the Life” in law enforcement which included a ride-along. 

Students that visited the legislative representatives were shown the processes of government, state and local.
