Virtual Job Shadowing
Deciding on what to be when you grow up is hard for anyone, especially high school students. This site will allow the student to see what it is actually like working in a specific job. Students get to have their questions answered by the professional, while observing the day-to-day activities. If students aren't able to get hands-on experience, then there is a site for virtual job shadowing.
