How many high school students have a definitive answer to the age-old question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Most have thought about it and have an idea. Others have taken it a step further by taking a class at Heartland, conducting research and/or participating in a job shadow or internship through their program. However, as some students approach graduation, the pressure starts to build about what to do after high school–the choices are endless and can become overwhelming.
To help students gather college and career information, Heartland hosted 34 representatives from post-secondary institutions, business/industry and service organizations this past fall. A second college and career fair in conjunction with our open house was held on April 17, 2013.
Heartland Career Center teachers have worked diligently to incorporate the new Indiana College and Career Pathways into their programs. The Pathways taught at HCC include:
1. Arts, AV Technology and Communication
2. Education and Training
3. Hospitality and Human Services
4. Manufacturing
5. Transportation
6. Architecture and Construction
7. Health Science
8. Information Technology
9. Public Safety
I want to thank students, parents, instructors and staff for a great year. Please do not hesitate to call (260)563-7481 or e-mail me (mhobbs@hcc.k12.in.us) if you have any questions or would like to visit HCC.
