Welcome!

We hope you will join educators around the country for an exciting summer season of FREE, live Rubin webinars for professional development.

During each Dream Job webinar, we hold a live conversation with professionals in a variety of CTE career pathways. The webinars teach students about nature of the job and the importance of employability skills for college and career readiness.

During our “summer PD” webinars, we do a deep dive into important CTE topics and provide hands-on lessons teachers can use in the classroom.

See the full summer schedule below and secure your seats now!

Finally, we record all the webinars and post them to our YouTube channel. Subscribe today and never miss a new video!
