When: a monthly Virtual series starting in January 2021

Join us for a new kind of JA Inspire this year with the JA Inspire (Virtual) Career Speaker Sessions!

 JA Inspire Career Speaker Series is more than a virtual career fair, it brings together the business community and local schools and is designed to help launch middle school students into their futures: high school, college, and careers beyond.

Four sessions throughout the year focus on the 16 career clusters. Students can choose to participate in any or all of the sessions. Best suited for grades 7 and up.

Session #1 Content is Available HERE Featuring:

• Manufacturing
• Architecture & Construction
• Transportation, Distribution and Logistics
• Science, Technology, Engineering and Math 

Session #1 is Brought to you by GM Lockport Operations, Chase and Linde

Please refer to the chart below to see how the career clusters are scheduled and on what dates. The ideas listed below can be live or pre-recorded. How Can Volunteers Participate?
