The goal and objectives of the Region One ESC GEAR UP partnership grant includes preparing students for college and career readiness as they plan for a post- secondary education. The VCR Talks initiative is a virtual experience that provides an interactive experience with GEAR UP cohort students and career professionals. VCR Talks is specifically designed to create pathways to higher education for all participating students.
Guest speakers will provide insight to necessary educational requirements, employment trends, personal insight, experience and the journey from high school graduation to post-secondary success.
VCR Talks utilizes current labor market trend data as well as other pertinent information from the Texas Workforce Commission and TEA to provide participants with relevant experiences that follow local and state educational requirements through career clusters and pathways. The local in-demand careers for the Rio Grande Valley include: STEM, Health Science, Information Technology, Law, Public Safety, Corrections and Security, Education and Training, and Agriculture.
