Last week our Secondary students enjoyed a Career Day with 13 successful parents who volunteered to come and talk about their profession.
The event has been organised in two phases:
- The morning session from 12h to 14h
- The afternoon session from 15h to 16:30h
The main topics of the meeting have been:
- Engineering/Industry
- Language
- Computer Science
- Climate Science
- City Planning
- Business/Marketing
- Finance/Economy
- Medical professions
- Tourism
Our guests have all an international background and several years of experience through a brillant career in different fields of work.
Morning session:
- Mike Sutton – Computer programmer & Business owner
- Carolina McKinlay – Industrial designer/ CAD designer
- Ancizar Arenas – Engineering manager/ Software engineer
- Bárbara Pérez – Director of Translation Technology
- Natividad Caro – Telecommunication engineer
- Bruce Philips – Climate Science educator/Film maker
Afternoon session:
- Louise Neail – Finance (trading: banks and energy companies)
- Anai Jannin – International Business Manager
- Verónica Ramírez – Director of Smart City Clouster
- Francisco Avilés – Economist
- Antonia Sánchez – Tourism (travel agencies)
- Chus Carrasco – University professor
It has been a very interesting event during which students had the chance to talk and make questions to solve their doubts or perplexities.
We can clearly considerate it as a very fruitful intergenerational meeting for both sides.
Thank you everyone for participating!
