Skilled Trades Career Fair for Students at Brethren
More than 400 Students from Kaleva Norman Dickson and Bear Lake Schools learned about local opportunities for skilled trades careers at a hands-on Career Fair in Brethren. A Northwest Michigan Works! Career Facilitator who works with schools in the region organized the event to raise awareness of the trades and local opportunities, and to initiate curiosity for the students to learn more through interactive activities. Watch the video to find out more about the Career Fair.
The Networks Northwest team did a great job to help the City of Charlevoix and Charlevoix Township collaborate in addressing housing challenges in our community. They facilitated dialogue with Planning Commissioners, community stakeholders, and municipal officials to develop a plan for cohesive zoning in areas of growth for our two governments. Further, they were able to pinpoint the challenges in each unit and propose changes that would be beneficial all around. Together, we believe we'll be better prepared for housing developments and job growth in our region. We look forward to working with them on future projects!
