Made in Owatonna Event a Success!

Our goal with the Made in Owatonna Day events is to expose students to great job opportunities in Owatonna (and Steele County). Typically, students sign up for the event because they already have an interest in one of the career fields being covered. Not all students are interested in all portions of the event. We survey students who attend the event on attitudes and feelings both before and after the day of tours and presenters. I have shared a summary of those results below.

As you can see, students were impacted! The shift in attitudes and feelings about the careers covered was extraordinary! In addition, ALL students rated their overall attitude about the day as “VERY satisfied” or “satisfied”. If you would like to see the full results of this survey, please contact Tanya Paley tanya.paley@unitedwaysteelecounty.org.
