LIFT for Teachers

Our students can only dream as big as they can see. As an educator, you are uniquely positioned to engage students in conversations about their future careers. LIFT provides educators with externship experiences where they are able to see first-hand, the technical and social skills their students may need for their desired workplace.

Program Goals:

1. Bridge the gap between education and workforce through experiential learning.
2. Expose educators to the true needs of our community’s industry and business partners in relation to career pathways.
3. Establish relationships with fellow educators and industry leaders – creating a resource base for educators to implement innovating teaching strategies into their classrooms.

We are asking local businesses to sponsor so the program will be at no cost to participants. The number of sponsorships received will determine how many applicants will be selected to participate in the program.
