16 students from Cajon Valley Union School District’s Bostonia Global High School are gaining hands-on construction experience by designing and building custom potting benches that will be sold upon completion of the program.

💡 Three returning students from last year are stepping into expanded roles, receiving:
• Introduction to Project Management

This isn’t just a class.

It’s real-world, industry-aligned training.
✔️ Hands-on projects
✔️ Industry mentorship
✔️ Earned wages
✔️ Career pathway exploration

Students are not only learning on the job—they’re earning a paycheck while doing it. That’s workforce development in action.

WorkforceConnect, in partnership with World of Work Foundation, AGC Apprenticeship, Bostonia Global, Cajon Valley Union School District, Heart to Serve Institute, San Diego Automotive Museum, Ignite Academy, and the office of Joel Anderson, is proud to kick off our 2nd Annual Pre- & Youth Apprenticeship Programs.

This year, we’ve expanded opportunities to 36 students who will receive:

✅ Industry mentorship
✅ Career pathway exposure
✅ Paid work-based learning

✨ Today, we are spotlighting 15 students working toward earning their CNA credentials — taking meaningful steps into the healthcare workforce while building compassion, technical skills, and confidence.

Students aren’t just learning about careers — they are actively building skills, earning wages, and gaining the experience to step into the workforce.

👏 Thank you to our incredible partners for making this possible.

👷‍♂️ Building Futures, One Nail at a Time! 🪚✨

WorkforceConnect was thrilled to host 46 students from Chula Vista Learning Community Charter for a hands-on Career Exploration Day at the AGC Apprenticeship Training Center!

Students dove into the world of construction with:
🔧 A plumbing competition
🏗️ Heavy equipment simulators
🪚 Wood framing and nail driving contests
⚙️ Power tool demos
🧱 and even metal stud framing

Even though most students have college in their future plans, it’s essential to expose them to the wide range of possibilities that exist beyond traditional paths — opportunities they might not have discovered without experiences like these.

Their excitement was contagious as they explored new skills and potential career pathways in the trades!

A huge thank you to our incredible partners — Junior Achievement of San Diego County, the World of Work Foundation, AGC Apprenticeship Program, and PHCC San Diego Chapter — for making this day possible.

And a special shoutout to Jon Hill and the AGC Apprenticeship team of volunteers for their leadership, energy, and commitment to helping students experience the World of Work firsthand! 👏
