SUCCESS STORIES

Here's what our students are saying—

"It was really fun but I wish it could have been longer. I did get to learn a lot and am now considering my future career to include drones."

Darla G. |Regional Drone Program

"Going in I did not know what to expect but was more than interested in the topic of drones when the program finished. The teaching style was very effective, alternating between helpful information given in lectures and being able to fly the drones and utilizing skills gained from flying them."

Bethany B.|Regional Drone Program

"Today I learned how important the green sector is and how it relates to academics and how it can change our world we live in. Before this event, I could care less about being "green." With the information I learned, I can try to apply it to my personal habits and consider this career industry."

Brendan|Villa Park High School

"I learned how planes work and operate aero-dynamically – also awesome career opportunities for people like me. It gave me the tools to able to find out how to participate in the Vital Link Summer Program and get my license. I am excited."

Hannah|Back Bay High School

"I learned that choosing a career in which you enjoy is much more suitable for me than selecting a career that makes a lot of money, but I have no interest in it. After today I would probably be more thoughtful in selecting a career in which I have interest in."

Lee|Westminster High School

"I learned about the variety of career options available in the medical field. I can analyze through the pros and cons of each option that I have considered as a career from a different perspective now."

Megan|Tustin High School

""Thank you so much for organizing the 5-Day Career Building Academy Program at North Orange Continuing Education (NOCE) in collaboration with the Career Skills and Resources Lab Department. I truly appreciated the opportunity to join and learn from the sessions. The program gave me a strong foundation and clear steps on how to start a bookkeeping services career and future business. The tips on leadership, resume building, vision board crafting, marketing, networking, and training were practical and very helpful. I also found the discussion with professional experts on Microsoft AI and quantum computing exciting and eye-opening—it made me think about the future of business in a new way. I’m grateful for the Vital Link Team for your support and commitment to helping students and professionals grow. Thank you again for this valuable experience!""
