Bridging the Gap

Commercial Arts and Advertising students completed their Bridging the Gap proposals and projects culminating with an awards breakfast this morning hosted by local Rotary clubs. Students participated in workshops on resume writing, interviewing, and portfolio presentations. They worked with Rotary mentors to develop marketing plans starting their own freelance businesses for illustration and graphic design. They designed and printed personal logos, business cards, and resumes. Next Polytech held a job fair with local businesses. Each student worked with a client to complete paying jobs. Today, students presented their final projects. Two students were awarded $250 scholarships for their performance. Above is winner Sara DiVito's bulletin board design for ProCare Rehabilitation. Below is winner Steven Jaskula's booklet design for the Hunterdon County teacher of the year luncheon.
