And so students, if this is a path that you're interested in, I would, I would suggest reaching out to your career guides. And career guides, you have a team of folks here to kind of brainstorm. Some districts have access to support job shadows, but we also— this project is really a partnership with the Department of Labor, the Department of Education, the university system, and then there's some employer partners, so we're happy to brainstorm and help how we can to— if there's students that are interested in that.
