PictureTech employees from Thomson Reuters spoke to students last year.
Just added! Skyline High School is looking for some tech employees from the following fields to speak to our students: cybersecurity, bioinformatics, finance, data science.

What: Tech-a-teer Panel at Skyline High School
When: Tues, Dec 10 at 7:45-8:46am, 10:23-11:34am, or 12:04-1:20pm


This is a great chance to interact with students and get them excited about a job in your field or company.

These events introduce students to future careers and give them an understanding of the skills they need for the jobs of tomorrow. 

Panel participants will be each have a chance to speak to students about your job, the skills needed for that job, and more. 

There will then be time for students to ask panelists questions. We hope to provide panel participants with discussion questions ahead of time so you can prepare your remarks. 

We are also interested in having this be an interactive presentation so panel participants are encouraged to bring examples of their work that students can touch, see, hear, taste, etc.

Finally, our schools are quite diverse so we'd love to have a panel that has diverse representation by race, gender, sexual orientation, education, etc.

Interested?  Check out the sign up for and sign up today!
