Career Immersion

Scholars will participate in up to four annual externships, or authentic simulations that replicate the 21st century teaching and digital workplace, promoting cross-cultural collaboration through project-based learning. Externships focus on stewarding skills inherent to teaching and industry, building college- and career-ready resumes, networking connections with professionals as mentors, and accumulating digital badges based on relevant skills. Scholars will develop the prerequisite skills to fuel these experiences through internships in our maker-spaces and entrepreneurial labs.

College Immersion

Scholars will personalize the college and career progression to ensure they graduate with college credits and certificates enabling completion of prerequisites, development of critical computer science and IT skills, and/or accrual of stackable credentials in eucation, computer science, IT industry fields and more. Students can build college and career experience through immersion in one of three routes, including the Exlporer, Discovery, and Visionary pathways, each of which offer a gradually deepened immersion into education, computer science and IT career paths.
