The Athens Chamber of Commerce is hosting an Externship Program this Summer! |
|
Building a bridge connecting educators and the business community is a focus of the Athens Chamber this year. This summer, thanks to the sponsorship of Georgia Power and the coordinative work of the Northeast Georgia Regional Commission, 15 educators will be paid to spend a week in local manufacturing plants.
Externships are a unique professional development opportunity where teachers are immersed in a company to learn about the skills and competencies needed to succeed in that industry or career path. The experience strengthens an educator’s teaching abilities and brings relevant, real-world context into the classroom.
