Connecting Students and Businesses: Exploring Opportunities at Wes Watkins Technology Center
In this podcast, we spoke with Merida Tomb, a counselor at Wes Watkins Technology Center in Wetumka, Oklahoma. Merida shared how Wes Watkins partners with local schools to introduce students, starting as early as 3rd grade, to the center’s wide range of programs and career opportunities. While Merida was the featured guest, it’s worth noting she works alongside another dedicated counselor, Tina Harjo. Additionally, we touched on the work of Mike Lindley, Director of Workforce & Economic Development, whose programs provide tailored training for businesses. Stay tuned for a future episode with Mike to learn how Wes Watkins supports local employers.
