How Can Your Business Get Involved?

The JAG program uses a tiered approach to employer engagement, focusing on providing participants with opportunities to explore career pathways, gain exposure to different industries, and acquire work experience, ultimately aiming to help them achieve success in their chosen career paths.

Tier 1: Exploration

Students explore career paths and gain exposure to different industries through activities like career fairs, presentations by industry professionals, and mentoring opportunities.

Tier 2: Exposure

Students gain hands-on experience and build skills through site visits, job shadows, and other work-based learning opportunities.

Tier 3: Experience

Students are in provided connections to internships, apprenticeships, and work-based experiences that align with their interests and career goals, allowing them to apply their skills and gain real-world experience.

Tier 4: Partnership

JAG works with employers to develop and implement programs that meet the needs of both students and businesses, such as customized training and job placement services.
