2021 Spring Virtual Educator Externship

ElevateEdAZ, in partnership with the Center for the Future of Arizona, Arizona Business and Education Coalition, and the Pima County Superintendent’s Office, are the hosts of the Virtual Educator Externships for educators across Arizona. These externships have allowed educators to get a glimpse into career resources to them develop their curriculum for their students.

Recently, we wrapped up the spring series with great success. See highlights from the 2021 Spring Virtual Educator Externships below:

variety of career paths and to help them develop the skills they will need.” Educator participant of the 2021 Spring Virtual Educator Externship

 

“As a teacher looking for resources to prepare students for the future, it is good to know that we

don’t have to re-invent the proverbial wheel–we have partners who are the real thing and can

collaborate with us.” – Educator participant of the 2021 Spring Virtual Educator Externship

 

“This externship provided a wealth of information of many high demand careers that our high

school students need to know about as they graduate from high school. This externship also

provided a plan to invite guest speakers to support students in mock interviews, resumes and

volunteer opportunities.” – Educator participant of the 2021 Spring Virtual Educator Externship
