On Wednesday, April 3, 2019 Joliet Catholic Academy welcomed 34 alumni into junior classrooms so they could hear stories of career successes, failures and life lessons. The JCA community is truly grateful to each person that took the time to attend, giving back to current students and the community at the 2019 JCA Alumni Career Day.

Throughout the day, presenters spoke for 20 minutes each about their current job, and the path it took to attain their positions. Once done speaking, JCA students were encouraged to ask questions of each presenter. Several presenters noted throughout the day their availability outside of Career Day to help inquiring young JCA students in their future career search through job shadowing, further guidance through conversation, or even potential internship programs.

JCA Director of Alumni Relations Sue Bebar added, “What I love most about Career Day is our alumni telling the students about their journey from graduation to where they are at today. Each presenter has a unique story of their path and how it has impacted them.  Students today can learn from the failures and the successes… true life lessons.”
