The Career Awareness Program within Learning for Life is a
program designed to expose middle and high school students in the
Los Angeles area to a variety of career fields so that they will be
better prepared to make career decisions. Rather than having
students go in to the community without knowledge of these career
opportunities, the Career Speaker Program brings the community into
the classroom and supplies these students with the direction they
need to make their career hopes a possible reality. The career
speakers offer students with an in-depth understanding and
first-hand knowledge of their career fields and what it takes to
become successful in those fields. The hope is that, in turn, these
presentations inspire the students to continue their education and
explore these |

Who are the Career Speakers? |
|
Career Speakers are special people who volunteer their time,
knowledge, and expertise in their specific field to the
students. They do not have to be accomplished public
speakers in order to volunteer. Every speaker receives an
outline of Speaker expectations for the program and personal
coaching from Learning for Life staff so that the experience
is enjoyable and easy. |

Becoming a Career Speaker… |
|
Being a speaker does not involve a long-term commitment, nor does it
require much volunteer time. Each speaker speaks for a short period
of time, usually sixty minutes or less, during the day for an
audience of middle or high school students. We understand that each
speaker has his/her individual schedule, and are very flexible as to
scheduling a presentation time. |
