Business Employment Standards Transition (B.E.S.T.)
The Columbia-Greene B.E.S.T. program helps students develop the skills, behaviors and knowledge necessary for success in the workplace and/or college.
Based on standards set by area businesses, B.E.S.T. assesses students’ competence through their academic performance and attendance, and community and career exploration activities. Each student creates a portfolio that demonstrates the application of his or her skills. Businesses participate by providing guest speakers, hosting tours, mentoring and providing internships.
Women in Business Group
The Chamber’s Women in Business Group brings together local business women to help foster personal and professional growth. Members meet regularly to provide and receive support, as well as to expand their networks.
