Volunteering at BCTN helps students to build a resume. Students gain relevant work experience in a variety if environments, like animal shelters, retail stores, libraries, and more, and can use this experience to apply for jobs after BCTN.

Students will also create a "MEGI Path" Presentation that details their work goals, past experience, needs, strengths, and a plan of how to reach their goals.

MEGI (Motivational Enhancement Group Intervention). is a 10 week class taught by a trained Transition Education Facilitator, that is funded by Oregon Vocational Rehabilitation. The class focuses on assisting students in exploring employment dreams, goals, challenges, and abilities. Students are able to share their MEGI Path presentation in their IEP Meeting and with outside agencies such as job developers, Personal Support Workers (PSW), and LCDDS or Brokerages.  The MEGI Path presentation is a great way for students to advocate for themselves and to support other crucial transition support workers in getting to know them a little bit easier.
