Everett Career Link is a partnership between Everett Public Schools, Snohomish STEM, the City of Everett, and regional employers designed to offer students the opportunity to "learn before they earn" by showing what it is like to work in a specific job environment, and providing high school credit to students.
High school internships, mentorships and career exploratory experiences support the vitality of the region by providing students with the opportunity to access knowledge of pathways to fulfilling careers, while at the same time providing employers the opportunity to address workforce needs by working with potential future employees.
