Job Shadowing

Job shadowing gives you the chance to spend the day at work with an alumnus or parent.  You will meet your host at his/her place of work and go through the rigor of the "real world" by attending meetings, connecting with clients, conducting research, and doing what ever else may pop up during the day.

Applications for Job Shadowing have closed.  This program took place during the week of January 7-11, 2008. Contact us for more information about this program.

Quotes from 2008 Student Participants:
 

Katie Eissler '10
Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts

I cannot express how beneficial and helpful this experience was for me. I went into this shadowing experience thinking that I would either like to teach French or work in higher education. While I am still not entirely sure of what career path I would like to take, I better understand my options and know that whichever option I choose to pursue, I will be very happy.

Ibrahima Diallo '08
Goddard Franchise School, Foresthill, MD
The shadowing visit has helped solidify my career path
because one day I would like open a school similar to Goddard or get the franchise rights to open a Goddard school in my neighborhood.
