What is Job Shadowing?
What is Job Shadowing?
Job shadowing is one type of school-supervised work-based learning activity meant to support student career exploration activities as part of a quality Academic and Career Planning delivery system. Job shadowing is short-term and exploratory in nature. The experience should be planned to provide opportunities to explore all aspects of the business or industry as well as the specific of job to be shadowed. Students may practice hands-on tasks but not perform actual work for the employer. Job shadowing provides:
An opportunity for students to see “real-world” work in an area of interest
An incentive for students to prepare for their futures by connecting academic work to career work
Input into career decision-making for a student
