@ Garth Webb S.S.

Join us for the Future of Work Ideathon, an enlightening journey into the evolving landscape of employment and skills organized by the GW School Council.

Following the great success of last year’s event, which brought together over 120 parents for insightful discussions and meaningful engagement, this year’s workshop has been expanded to include both parents and high school students. This unique format will bridge the gap between today’s education and tomorrow’s career opportunities by fostering a collaborative environment where parents and students can explore and discuss the trends shaping the future of work.

Experience a hands-on workshop guided by mentors and an inspiring keynote speech that will delve into the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the future job market. Engage in group activities tailored to spark conversation, share ideas, and create actionable insights.

Prepare to leave with valuable knowledge, innovative strategies, and a shared enthusiasm for guiding the next generation toward a successful and adaptable future.

Spaces are limited, reserve your spot today and be part of shaping the future together!
