JA Career Speaker - Wisconsin | Northwest Area

JA Career Day provides students the opportunity to learn about a variety of careers in an engaging and hands-on classroom setting.

As a volunteer speaker, you will present the same brief overview (~30 minutes) of your career for up to four groups of students. Presentations should be interactive in nature and include:

• Introductions
• Field/Career that you are in
• What other types of careers are available in your field?
• What do you do?
• What type of education do you need to get into your position?
• What do you like about your career?
• What challenges do you face?
• What are the opportunities for advancement?
• Outlook for career?

Tips:

• Engage and interact with the students. Bring along items to show the students what you do.
• Tell an interesting story about your career.
• Bring an item for kids to take home to promote your business
• Play a game which helps them understand your career.
