Fostering Future Talent: Leander ISD Partners with CBS Austin for Graphic Design Students

This week's Employer Partnership Nomination goes to CBS Austin, nominated by Leander ISD.

In a world where hands-on experience is invaluable, partnerships between educational institutions and industry professionals play a pivotal role in shaping the future workforce. This week, we shine the spotlight on a remarkable collaboration between Leander Independent School District (ISD) and CBS Austin, bringing real-world opportunities to students in the Graphic Design program of study.

Steve Harris, from CBS Austin, has extended a generous invitation to students enrolled in Leander ISD's Graphic Design program. The invitation? A behind-the-scenes tour of the CBS Austin studio, coupled with the unique opportunity to witness a live show in action. During the tour, he opens the floor to students, encouraging them to ask questions. This direct interaction provides invaluable insights and inspiration, igniting the students' passion for graphic design even further.

Fostering relationships with employers is crucial for bridging the gap between classroom learning and real-world application. By offering students a firsthand glimpse into the industry, partnerships like the one between Leander ISD and CBS Austin pave the way for future success.

As we extend our gratitude to Steve Harris and CBS Austin for their dedication to empowering the next generation of graphic designers, let us also celebrate the profound impact of such collaborations. Together, we are shaping a brighter future, one opportunity at a time.
