Millennium Fellowship Project: Career Compass
The *Career Compass Project* is a community outreach initiative targeted at public secondary schools students. Its aim is to educate, guide, and mentor these students on their career path. Through structured school visits, mentorship sessions, the project will help students identify their interests, value education better, understand various career options, and make informed decisions about their future paths. By bringing career education directly into these public classrooms, Career Compass seeks to instill confidence in students to pursue their careers.
