Teacher in the Workplace Industry Tours – A Huge Success
by Jesse McCree
The Teacher in the Workplace Program gave educators the opportunity to participate in a two-week “tour” of industries that are in high demand right now in the Central PA area. The four industries that the program focused during the two weeks of tours included: healthcare, accounting/business, manufacturing, and skilled trades/apprenticeship.
Industry tours were conducted at the following locations:
Accounting/Business
Manufacturing
- Weldon Solutions
- Manufacturers’ Association
- New Concept Technologies
- Military & Commercial Fasteners
- Ames
- Plouse Precision Machining
- Phoenix Contact
Healthcare
Skilled Trades/Apprenticeships
It was highly educational and our educators, as well as those that were so gracious to have us visit, thoroughly enjoyed the tours. Below are a few photos from the Harrisburg International Airport Tour (skilled trades/apprenticeships) and the Cumberland EMS Tour (healthcare). Thank you to all who participated!
