Externship Model
Externship model that's been well received by others in the state. Are you hearing from your students that they are feeling lost and don’t know what their next step is after High School?

The good news is that degrees are no longer required for some high wage & high demand careers.
If you have students and parents who are interested, please have them visit our Programs Page. We're happy to have you and your families join our “Modern Student’s Roadmap To Success” webinar which can be found on the webpage.
