We held our third Student Career Camp of the school year, this time focusing on opportunities in Finance! Students had the incredible opportunity to visit Great Lakes Community Action Partnership and engage with the entire finance department, gaining insights into various career paths, and learning about non-profits. The day wrapped up at Croghan Colonial Bank, where they learned about careers in finance, fraud protection, and how to earn credit. A special thank you to Terra State for hosting us in the morning, and to GLCAP and Croghan Colonial Bank for inspiring our future finance professionals!

Sandusky County students had the opportunity to visit four different businesses in two different industries through our Student Career Camp program so far this fall! On October 24th, the students visited Damschroder Roofing and Mosser Construction, giving students a hands-on experience in the construction industry. Then, on October 29th, ProMedica Memorial Hospital and Community Health Services provided an inside look into healthcare careers. It was amazing to see students get a firsthand glimpse into these exciting fields!
