WORKSITE TOURS PROVIDE CAREER EXPOSURE TO STUDENTS WHO ARE FURTHEST FROM OPPORTUNITY, INCLUDING BIPOC, LOW-INCOME, AND FIRST GENERATION. THROUGHOUT THE 2022-2023 SCHOOL YEAR, OVER 1200 STUDENTS FROM KING, PIERCE, AND SNOHOMISH COUNTIES WILL PARTICIPATE IN THESE INTERACTIVE, CAREER-FOCUSED LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. CAREER LAUNCH PROGRAMS COMBINE MEANINGFUL, HIGH-QUALITY, PAID ON-THE-JOB EXPERIENCE WITH CLASSROOM LEARNING, CREATING A PATHWAY TO CAREERS THAT PROVIDE UPWARD MOBILITY AND FAMILY-SUSTAINING WAGES. WE KNOW THAT WHILE 70% OF AVAILABLE JOBS REQUIRE A POST-SECONDARY CREDENTIAL, ONLY 40% OF HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES EARN SUCH A DEGREE, CERTIFICATE, OR FORMAL TRAINING. THIS MEANS 60% OF STUDENTS ARE NOT ATTAINING THE POST-SECONDARY CREDENTIALS NEEDED TO LEAD THEM TO ECONOMIC SUCCESS. WABS PARTNERS WITH THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP TABLE (HILT) TO DELIVER THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE PACKAGE. THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE PACKAGE (SEP) PROVIDES HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY-LED EXPERIENCES FOR BIPOC, LOW-INCOME, AND FIRST GENERATION STUDENTS. SPECIFICALLY, STUDENTS LEARN FROM HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS ABOUT HIGH-DEMAND HEALTHCARE CAREERS THROUGH FOUR HEALTHCARE CAREER EXPLORATION PROGRAMS.
