5th Year exists to address a serious need: each year, thousands of Northwest Ohio high school students graduate without a clear path forward.
The high cost of college, unfamiliarity with job and career options and a lack of certain business, financial and life skills leave many of those young adults unprepared and with few choices.
5th Year is a nine-month program that allows recent high school grads to explore professional opportunities before committing to a career path. Our unbiased, non-judgmental approach gives students the insight they need to make informed decisions about their future before investing time, effort and money in options they may know little about.
When I speak to high school students about career options, I let them know I work in marketing and what a typical day might include. Many kids have said to me that they had no idea marketing is a real job or that they could pursue it, too. 5th Year gives young adults a much broader picture of what’s possible and opens up all sorts of opportunities for them.
