WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — Students took part in a job-shadowing experience at the Greater Wyoming Valley Chamber of Commerce on Friday.

Northeast Sight Services students followed staff through day-to-day operations at the chamber offices in Wilkes-Barre, learning about professional roles and career pathways.

Officials say the experience helps students gain confidence as they prepare for real-world settings and professional environments.

“The program so far has been pretty fun. I’ve enjoyed all the experiences we’ve had, by experiences I mean, going to different places and learning about what each place does,” said Anthony Basilyo, Northeast Sight Services student.
