SO YOU THINK YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BUSINESS???
THIS OPPORTUNITY COULD BE FOR YOU!!

The experience will include a tour of the CLA facility, time to connect with professionals, exposure to potential careers in this field, and free lunch for students. CLA is also hoping to identify students interested in their paid internship program, which makes this an even more valuable opportunity.

Because I know how much you care about students and helping them access real opportunities, I wanted to ask if you’d be willing to share the registration form with your families.
