We hosted our Summer JETS Takeoff Training Class for our Summer Interns yesterday! This class prepared the students to start their internships next week. They learned a lot from Financial Literacy and the Do's and Don'ts of the Work Place and were able to experience our very cool Virtual Career Exploration program. There was lots of learning, fun and new friendships made during the JETS Takeoff Training Class.
Thank you to the Birmingham Career Center for letting us host our event in their space. Also, a big thank you to Shipley Do-Nuts in Hoover for donating breakfast for our class.
We are so proud of these students and cannot wait for a fantastic summer of Internships!
