Almost 60 Riverland Community College students learned from area professionals Thursday during the third annual Career Cafe.
Riverland’s Be Your Best and SPARK students, who attend the college preparatory programs throughout the summer, spent about two hours rotating through professionals tables and learning about their careers.
“It’s a great way to get students exposed to different careers,” Be Your Best Coordinator Yesenia
Mendoza said.
