Career Jam™ Explore at Hudson Valley Community College

What is Career Jam™ Explore?

Career Jam™ Explore is a highly interactive career exploration event for 8th and 9th grade students. Our unique approach aims to promote the community's diverse career paths by raising awareness among students, their families, and educators. Highlighting these options earlier can help influence student education choices and retain their talents to fill local jobs that can empower future economic growth.  Local businesses from the 16 nationally recognized career clusters provide hands-on activities during the events highlighting the diverse skills in-demand.

• Engagement Matters - Each career exploratory booth must include a hands-on component that will enhance the students' learning experience.
   

• Diversity Matters - It’s important for students to see working professionals that look like them. Diversity among company representatives is strongly suggested.
   

• Being Present Matters - You must have a company representative present for the entire exhibit time. Representatives cannot leave the booth unattended at any time.
   

• Participation Matters - Students will walk the floor with scavenger hunt cards to encourage engagement with the employers. Sign off on their cards to verify they stopped by!
