πβοΈπ Helping Students Get Their Future in Gear! βοΈ
High school students from across southern Minnesota recently participated in Transportation Works! Get Your Future In Gear!, a two-day immersive experience designed to introduce students to the many rewarding careers available in the transportation industry.
Through hands-on activities, industry tours, and conversations with professionals, students explored career pathways in automotive engineering, heavy equipment operation, auto body and collision repair, diesel technology, truck maintenance, aviation, drone technology, and more.
Programs like Transportation Works! help students connect their interests and talents with high-demand, high-wage careers that keep our communities moving while building Minnesota's future workforce.
