Business Partner Challenge #1:
How do we improve Transmatic's employee wellness program?
Our experience . . .
"Working and presenting with a team is not something I thought I would be able to do before this. However, everyone at futurePREP'd and Transmatic allowed me to have an amazing first year of high school, and first year of futurePREP'd. It's truly an experience that I'll never forget." ~ Leah, HS Student
"Going forward, we feel we could do a better job of honing students' research skills. The protocols are always fun and well-received, but sometimes we have to dig in and research information. This is a skill that is still developing in our students." ~ A. Spruit, Educator

Business Partner Challenge #2:
How do we best utilize the mezzanine at Transmatic to be an employee activity and/or workout area?
Our experience . . .
"At first no one in my group knew each other but we became friends and it was super fun. I was able to form connections that will help me later in life. Future PREP'd Academy was a good learning experience and helped improve my problem solving and communication skills. ~ Mason
"We (Transmatic) enjoy hosting Academy students each winter. We look forward to doing it again in the future." ~ Business Partner
"This was one of the best Academy groups I have been part of. The driving question was relevant and feasible, the students were driven and very fun to hang out with, and the business was welcoming and supportive." ~ Alexa Spruit, Educator
"It is always a pleasure working with the Academy groups; however, this year’s team set themselves apart from previous years.
They worked together so well, and everyone seemed to have input into the final presentation. Thank you for your research and dedication that you put into your driving question!" ~ Tricia, Transmatic
