On January 21, JAG students from the nine programs in our area held their annual Career Development Conference.
After hosting the event virtually in 2021, this year the event returned to in person competitions. The students were able to attend the event at the Ivy Tech Campus in Terre Haute. Local employers and business leaders once again volunteered their time to serve as judges for the event.
The students competed in numerous events that utilizes the skills that they have building on throughout the school year. In addition to the competitions, the students were able to take a tour of the Ivy Tech campus and learn more about the school.
The first place finishers in each competition will move on to the State competition later in the spring.
