An interactive Panel Discussion by Teach of Kenya was held on Leadership, impact in Education, and their collaboration with schools and educational organizations to support public schools in addressing some of the challenges they face. Teach for Kenya also offered information about their two-year fellowship program that attaches graduates to schools to offer support in the areas where the schools require help.

This session met its objectives, the Office of Career Services looks forward to coordinating more work-readiness sessions for students in an effort to prepare them for exit to the world of work.
