Pax says:

"KM Global gave my education a purpose.
High school can too easily become a stress-plagued grind towards shallow test scores, an educational race driven by obligation and pressure rather than passion and exploration. I'm beyond grateful that Global gave me more than a "checked box" to pursue and be proud of.
In high school, I actually liked school. And I STILL look through my inquiries."

"Arriving at university, I know what person I want to be, what skills I want to develop, and what my education means to me. I'm not here because it's just "the next step". I'm here to take every advantage of these opportunities. This does not mean I have everything figured out. Rather, Global helped me develop the mindset and the skills to expand my self-exploration, self-development, and self-advocacy."

"In no small part because of Global, I'm excited to continue challenging myself. Not because I feel like I should or have to, but because I genuinely want to. Seriously, a purpose-driven mindset carries weight."

Eddy says: "KM Global prepared me for the future by keeping me thinking about career throughout high school and encouraging me to research and learn about my options. One of the biggest reasons I ended up going into welding was because of the career field experiences that Global provided through their connections and their focus on internships and career exploration."
