Great Lakes Bay Region STEM Career Hub Explore. Connect. Build a future.

Built with the region

Regional Industry & Partner Showcase

This hub gives regional employers, colleges, and workforce partners one clean place to share tours, speakers, job-shadow days, internship pathways, and career talks. The Great Lakes Bay Region is home to major manufacturers, chemical plants, automotive suppliers, health systems, universities, and workforce boards. Below are the organizations whose career content is on the hub today. As Bay-Arenac ISD brings more partners on, their content is tagged the same way and becomes searchable throughout the hub.

On the hub today

Every resource on the hub comes from one of these three sources, and each one is tagged by career cluster, grade band, topic, and audience so it surfaces wherever a visitor is looking.

What a partner can contribute

The hub is built to carry any of these, across every career cluster in the region: manufacturing and advanced industry, health and medicine, engineering and higher education, information technology, and workforce and skilled trades.

  • Plant and facility toursIn person or filmed, so a class that cannot travel still gets inside.
  • Career talks and speakersSomeone doing the job, describing the path they took to it.
  • Job shadows and site visitsHalf-day or full-day placements across roles and departments.
  • Apprenticeships and internshipsPaid pathways, pre-apprenticeship programs, and how to apply.
  • Labor-market dataRegional job and training-program information counselors can hand to students.
  • Classroom-ready materialsLessons, activity kits, and career-connection prompts tied to real work.

Three simple steps

How partnering works

  1. A partner shares content. Submit a plant tour, video spotlight, speaker offer, or job-shadow day with the hub team (a self-serve partner portal is a planned addition).
  2. We tag it. Our team tags your content by grade, career cluster, resource type, and audience so educators, students, and families find exactly what they need.
  3. It goes live. Your resource appears in the hub's searchable library, partner showcase, and themed collections, and counts toward the reach figures reported on the impact page.
