Owens Corning recently played host to a group of more than 30 talented and ambitious high school students from the Young Executive Scholars (Y.E.S.) Program.
The Young Executive Scholars Program, which is operated through The University of Toledo’s John B. and Lillian E. Neff College of Business and Innovation, is a collaboration between the college and the Jones Leadership Academy of Business (JLAB) in Toledo.
The Y.E.S. Program was established in 2017 to help cultivate the academic potential of underrepresented students, preparing them for success in higher education. The goal of both the program and the visit to Owens Corning is education, an integral component to personal and professional development.
“By exposing our Young Executive Scholars to a diverse range of industries, business departments and job roles, we empower them with the knowledge and insight needed to make informed decisions about their future educational and career paths,” said Craig Turner, director of the Young Executive Scholars Program.
