Future Leaders in Action!
Our Operations Pathway students experienced an unforgettable day at EY Plaza in Downtown Los Angeles, where learning leaped beyond the classroom. From exploring the sleek offices to meeting EY professionals, students gained firsthand insight into the world of global business and professional services.
Each student delivered a personal pitch and received thoughtful, real-time feedback from EY’s team of experts—building confidence, communication skills, and professional presence. Later, they turned the tables, interviewing EY employees during an inspiring career panel, learning about career journeys, growth, and the power of networking.
Days like this remind me why experiential learning matters… because our students aren’t just studying success… they’re preparing to lead it!
