Stacey Mullis, Health Education Coordinator, attended the Cobb Rising Professionals Summit on Tuesday, September 15th. Work-Based Learning (WBL) students from Cobb County high schools had the opportunity to experience what it’s like to attend a professional conference, while exploring a variety of career pathways. Students learned about healthcare career opportunities, as well as careers and professions across multiple other industries. The experience provided students with valuable exposure to the professional world, networking opportunities and insight into potential career pathways! ⭐️
