Parks & Recreation - A Career For Life
Print this article | Send to Colleague
The IPRA College & University Relations Committee has launched a campaign to recruit young people into the field of parks & recreation. Acknowledging that this is often a "discovery" career - many high school & college-aged students often do not realize that it is a planned course of study - the CURC partnered with Greg Bizarro of Jaffe Films to produce an informational CD that can be shown to agency staff (lifeguards, day camp counselors, etc.)
We encourage you to show the video at seasonal staff trainings!
The video is available online. Be sure to check out the "Day in the Life" videos!
Audience: High school/college age
Purpose: To promote careers that are park and recreation specific, as well as careers in parks and recreation that involve other disciplines. Educate young adults about the viability of parks & recreation as a career path. Provide accurate and compelling information about parks & recreation as a career and direct them to additional resources. |
