Students attending programs through Fox Valley Career Center may be given an opportunity to go off campus and see what the world of business is all about. This involves hands-on experiences, problem solving techniques, improvement of written and verbal communications skills, and learning specific job skills necessary to be successful in today's job market.

Students will be chosen to take part in job shadowing, internships, and/or apprenticeships based on the recommendations of their instructors, counselors, career placement coordinator, employers, and most importantly, the desire of the student to participate in these programs. In the 21st century workplace, employers are looking for young men and women who have developed their skills and can exhibit those skills in job situations.
