  • The students loved the GOO Industry Tours. Many students followed up on their interest by emailing GOO so they could be linked with the business for future work experience and job opportunities. Networking is the key to employment and exposure. This has motivated and broadened students' awareness of what is available. It also allows employers to promote their businesses and skill shortages.

  • All students were thoroughly engaged in the GOO Industry Tours and found them not only interesting and engaging, but beneficial in helping with their career planning process. From a school’s point of view, the tours were an excellent way to bridge the gap between students and industry. We will definitely be participating again next year.
