Job shadowing is a useful way to learn about a particular job of interest. Each job shadowing experience can be different. However, you typically will follow an employee of a company and observe them partaking in their day-to-day work. They might ask you to help with certain tasks, as well. Depending on how long you shadow an employee, you might even learn skills critical to the job. Some employees will give you opportunities to ask questions throughout the day or at the end of the experience.

If you are interested in experiencing a job shadowing, we ask that you complete the form below.  When you click Submit, the Office of Work Based Learning (WBL) will receive the information and begin the process of securing a job shadowing experience.  The Office of WBL will contact you when the experience is secured.  Job shadowing is limited to one per school year for each student while enrolled at the GACTC.  If you have any questions, please stop by the Office of WBL (located by the Guidance Office) or email your questions to:  wbloffice@gactc.edu.
