2 Computer Tech Students and a Workbase Learning Specialist at the convention.

At MTC L.A Job Corps, we try to connect students to opportunities that can help them broaden their perspectives on future career paths. So the Business & Community Liaison and Workbase Learning Specialist decided to take a few students to the Wonder Women Tech Convention at the Long Beach Convention Center. This event was filled with panel discussions, workshops, and a Tech Job Fair. Our Computer Tech students had a great experience listening to other women in the industry talk about their challenges and successes to encourage others to persevere. One of the workshops included a deaf panel of professionals in the Tech Industry. The students that attended left with a improved outlook on their future career paths and with greater goals than they originally had.
