NextGen Women Professionals

Building the Next Generation of Women Professionals
​
Why Should I Particpate in NextGen Women Professionals?
As the saying goes: “We don’t know what we don’t know.”
There are professional careers in many industries that some of us may not know about because
people in our networks – our families, friends, and community members – are not well-represented in these professions or simply do not know enough about what professionals do in these fields. Moreover, girls/ young women have the additional problem of breaking into some professions historically dominated by men. As a result, it is even harder to get to know what women are doing in business, healthcare, law, and other professions.
​
By signing up to be part of our NextGen Women Professionals network, we can open up a new
world to you of possible career paths. You can learn from professional women who have experience in industries you may never have heard of.
​
Learning about these opportunities may be the first step in choosing a career path… the first step
toward forming your own goals and ambitions as you move past your high school years.
