NAF advisory boards provide an essential bridge between schools and the workplace. Industry and community leaders volunteer on local advisory boards to play an active role in developing their future workforce by shaping talent in high school. Advisory board members collaborate with educators to inform curricula and help organize work-based learning activities. Students also have the opportunity to build relationships with mentors early and learn from successful adults.
