Career and Personal Development/Extended Learning Opportunities

The Career and Personal Development Program is designed to provide students with the opportunity to explore career interests through connections with professionals in their field of interest and hands-on learning experiences. Informational interviews, job shadows, group job site visits, guest speaker programs, internships and other extended learning opportunities (ELOs) encompass the experiences available to WMHS students. These ELOs are made possible through connections with local business and community partners.

  • Programs that strengthen career awareness, exploration and preparation

  • Business education partnerships that offer internships, job shadowing and other work-based learning experiences

  • Opportunities for local businesses and organizations to engage with our students through mentoring and guest speaker programs

  • Experiential learning through ELOs that inspire and inform decisions about career paths and college investments

  • Maine’s future workforce growing up right here in our community
