What would you do with $1 million? Who's your dream business partner? 🤔These are some of the questions we asked local 8th graders at the Durham Public Schools' Acceler8 Career Exploration event! Students walked around and met with various local employers, nonprofits, and public agencies to learn about career opportunities. The expo allowed the 8th graders to explore career pathways in high-skill, high-wage, and high-demand fields. Thanks to DPS for hosting us and some of our Chamber members!
