STUDENT HIGHLIGHT: WIT Explores Career Opportunities
December 3, 2012
The Workforce Industry Training (WIT) program students at BCHS
have attended two events sponsored by Phillips 66. One was on
October 24th over Electrical and Instrumentation careers and
another on November 7th over Pipefitting and Welding careers. At
each event employees from Phillips 66 set up stations to explain
their jobs/crafts/trades. They shared information such as work
expectations, education required, hours they have to work and
salary. There were also some hands-on opportunities at these
stations. The group as a whole received information about the
importance of safety in the work area and ideas of where they might
get the education they need close to Bay City. Phillips 66 also
provided supper at both events and gave away door prizes and
take-home gifts. WIT at BCHS is sponsored by Jill Lowry.
