For Businesses

We need YOU! Your business is an essential part of the Lancaster County economic landscape. Career Ready Lancaster! was born out of a desire to connect job seekers to your opportunities. More than employment, workers are seeking the stability of long term career opportunities in our incredible business community.

We partner with local businesses in the following ways:

We let businesses know how to partner with schools: Our schools provide career education opportunities and love having businesses who can partner to help connect students with careers.

We promote The High 5 in schools throughout Lancaster City and County. The High 5 curriculum equips your future employees with the soft skills necessary for any career. We also encourage our business partners to adopt the High 5 language. By using the High 5 throughout our schools and businesses, our community will establish a common understanding on what it means to thrive in Lancaster.

We aim to inspire effective business and education partnerships, introducing students to your industry or business through creative and shared approaches. These include: Career Awareness and Preparation, Career Acquisition (Getting a Job), Career Retention and Advancement, and Entrepreneurship. Working together with our partners, we show students career possibilities that they didn’t even know existed! PA Career Ready

We celebrate promising practices by promoting strategies that build a strong talent pipeline. If you have an idea, let’s make it happen!
