What is a Career Post?

Local community organizations such as businesses, professional organizations and civic groups initiate specific Explorer posts. They do this by matching the interests of young adults with the people and program resources within their own organizations. The result is a program of activities that helps youth pursue their special interests, grow and develop.

Joining an after-school work-site based program (called Explorer “Posts”) further enhances the Exploring program. Here students receive hands-on experience with adult mentoring in the work place. Explorer “Posts” typically meet on a weekly basis for a couple of hours. Meeting dates and times are designated by business organization/company.
