Virtual ParentCamp! Week 9 – Career Series Kickoff! Kinship, Equity and Collaborative Spanish Room! ©ParentCamp, 2019, All Rights Reserved

A few weeks ago we joined a great group of digital media professionals for our very first Industry Camp.  In one of the rooms, the conversations between professionals, educators and students was very inspiring.  We thought, that is a great idea, let’s bring professionals, educators, parents and students together each week and explore various career paths.  The participants of that first Industry Camp were kind enough to offer to facilitate a session on Virtual ParentCamp.  So here we go!

So if you know anyone (professional or educators) in the digital media industry from across the globe, please invite them this week so they can share their knowledge with parents and students.  We guarantee the professionals and educators will learn just as much!  One of the interesting things we learned is that digital media has a large amount of  job categories are in it.  Check out the graphic below.

Check out Laura’s preview video for this week’s Virtual ParentCamp as she previews all of the sessions.
