Virtual and In-Person College and Career Exploration Opportunities

Huron Job Service will be providing activities for youth between the ages of 14-24 this summer. If they come to watch the virtual presentations at the Huron Job Service office, or come to the business and vocational school tours, they can earn $25 for attending each event. During the business tours they can also earn $15.00/hour for a job shadow experience. They don’t have to be enrolled in any programs; they just have to show up. Events include college tours of Mitchell Technical College, Lake Area Technical College, and Southeast Technical College. They will provide transportation for students, but they would need to drive to Huron and meet at Huron Job Service first.  Business tours include Prostrollo Moters & Banner Engineering, NorthWestern Energy, Horizontal Machining and Manufacturing Inc., Huron Area Center for Independence, Dakotaland Federal Credit Union, and Huron Regional Medical Center.
