From the UTK Center for Career Development:

The UTK Center for Career Development is launching a shadowing program for undergraduate students, and we are seeking alumni, community members, and employer partners to participate in the program as shadowing hosts. Our inaugural one-day shadowing program will take place on Tuesday, January 7^th, 2020 and is an opportunity to mentor and provide insight to students interested in your field while providing greater exposure for your organization , job function, and industry to UTK students.

To briefly explain job shadowing, it is designed to be an educational experience for students, as this may be their initial exposure to a professional environment. For others, it will be a chance to explore a career area they might otherwise not have exposure to or to investigate an interest area or potential major. The job shadow day itself may consist of observation of daily work, sitting in on meetings/other activities, touring your facility, speaking engagements from executives, informational interviews, or hands-on experience - all dependent on the nature of your industry and organization.

If you are interested in participating, please fill out this very short Google Form with more information about your organization and opportunities.

I am providing some FAQs and sample shadowing agendas for you to learn more about the program.
