The Teachers Boot Camp event was held on August 1st and 2nd, 2017 with a ceremonial dinner on August 8th. At this dinner, certificates were given to each participant along with a $250 stipend to be used in their classroom to help prepare students for the workplace. There were 15 area high school administrators and teachers along with one representative from Ashland University.
The purpose of the event was to have the educational participants visit area businesses and tour their facilities and learn firsthand what businesses are looking for from a potential employee.
