CIS Connections

CIS Connection is a way for local businesses and organizations to put information about who they are and what they do in front of local students and their parents. This allows students to put a “real world” face on their potential careers; through CIS Connection, they can take a look around Corvallis and see exactly where people work in the jobs that interest them. There is no fee whatsoever to any business or organization that wants to be a CIS partner. To see which local employers are CIS Connection partners, click here:

CIS Connection Partners

Each participating employer gets a CIS Connection web page on which they can post information about their business or organization, including a link to their own website, a description of their business and its mission, a list of positions that they hire, the skills they most desire in employees, and their logo. Through career learning activities in the schools, students are steered toward these pages.

A second part of CIS Connection is the chance for local employers to give students a first-hand look at occupations and the working world. If a business or organization chooses, it can join a volunteer database that school staff can consult to arrange guest speakers, job shadows, mock job interviews and other career learning opportunities. The employer can choose the activities in which it would be comfortable participating, and can also list the specifics (size of group, amount of advance notice, age of participants, etc.) for their involvement.
