Building Transferable Skills: Preparing Your Child for Work-Based Learning and Beyond

September 30, 2025 from 6:00 – 7:00 PM EST

Join Tech Unlimited’s Education Team for an informative conversation on how to help students develop transferable skills they need to succeed beyond the classroom. This session will be led by Education Director, Haley Shibble, Work-Based Learning Coordinator, Anna Boyarko, and Social Worker, Hunter Soileau, and will focus on what work-based learning is, how it is integrated into Tech Unlimited’s programs, and the outcomes we have seen for students.

We will also discuss how to prepare your child for career ladder programs, including the foundational skills that support a successful application and how they can begin building valuable experience. Some of the programs that will be highlighted include:

  • Creative Tech Internship (CTI)
  • Digital Agency (DA)
  • Career Readiness Internship Summer Program (CRISP)
  • Level Up Tech (LUT)

The session will explore the technical and workplace skills students develop, such as digital literacy, time management, and problem-solving, along with the social-emotional and interpersonal skills that strengthen communication, collaboration, and self-advocacy. Parents will leave with a clear understanding of how these experiences help students gain confidence and prepare for future learning, work, and life.
