Business Link is a program designed to help eighth-grade students understand the connection between skills learned in class and those needed for success in the workplace.

Teachers help students learn the connection between the curriculum and skills needed in the workplace, and students use hands-on experiences to help them select elective classes and make decisions regarding possible future careers.

Partners in the business community provide students with detailed exposure to the workplace, usually through one-day, hands-on experience or through an internship of two to four students accompanied by a parent, teacher, or volunteer.

If your business is interested in participating as a Business Link site, or if you would be willing to supervise two to four students on Business Link dates, please contact Partners in Education at 512 943-5175, or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
