Southeast Texas Works! Podcast Update
Throughout the Southeast Texas Works! Podcast series, we have focused our interactions with guests from various backgrounds and diverse industries to provide listeners with broad ideas and focused opinions regarding workforce development. In March, we released a unique interview with Sgt. Jeremy Kempt, a dedicated Career Counselor for the Texas National Guard. Sgt. Kempt and the Texas National Guard participate in many outreach events in Southeast Texas. He shares similar partnerships with local school districts as they prepare students for graduation from high school and the entry into higher education or the workforce. Kempt explains how his decision to join the Guard involved family input and provided the opportunity to select from an array of career paths. He also shares advice for individuals considering joining the Guard. Click here to listen to this episode.
