The Clackamas Education Service District (ESD) is excited to introduce the Clackamas Connect Career Hub, a new secure online platform designed to bridge the gap between schools and industry partners. This innovative resource will provide educators with direct access to employers in the region who are ready to engage with schools and support Career & Technical Education (CTE) programs.

The Clackamas Connect Career Hub will allow schools to connect with local businesses and industry leaders offering a variety of opportunities, including:

• Guest Speaking

• Company Tours

• Job Shadows

• Short-Term Internships

• Career Fairs

• Advisory Committees

How It Works

The Clackamas Connect Career Hub is a secure, private database that requires a login for access. CTE administrators and many college & career counselors already have accounts. Administrators, counselors, or teachers wanting access can request an account by emailing Bill Blevins at bblevins@clackesd.k12.or.us

To support educators in utilizing this resource, Clackamas ESD is offering a short training session to introduce the platform, demonstrate how to find opportunities, and show how to track engagement with industry partners.  There are also step by step instructions for accessing the database.
