Bill Cox, a Paul Harris Fellow and Past President from the Kingstree Rotary Club, joined the Bluffton Rotary Club on September 17th, to talk about Personal Pathways to Success. Currently Cox is the Coordinator for the LowcountryRegionalEducationCenter, housed at the TechnicalCollege of the Lowcountry, Beaufort campus.

 

Created by the Education and Economic Development Act of 2005, Personal Pathways to Success is an innovative way of connecting academic studies with preparation for entering the workforce. Personal Pathways will provide students in SC with the resources to identify, explore and develop an education plan for their career and employment goals.

To meet their goals, 12 Regional Education Centers (REC's) have been created across the state. The centers are designed to help connect the students and educators with the business community and provide students with opportunities such as internships and job shadowing, in their field of interest.
