Exploring and Learning for Life, Coed
Exploring
Boys and girls ages 14 to 21

Exploring is Learning for Life’s hands-on program for boys and girls 14–20 that takes them out of the classroom and into the business world.
Young people form their own clubs (posts) and learn directly from businesspeople what it takes to become a productive member of today’s workforce. Posts are youth led, supported by adult advisors, that meet several times each month to strengthen member’s organizational and leadership skills, offer opportunities for service, social interaction, team-building, and career guidance.

an exploring executive.
