EOC, Inc Field Trip Philosophy
There is a big world out there & we are determined to help our participants explore it with meaningful experiences!
Why Conduct College Trips?
Why does EOC, Inc. take their students on trips? It’s simple, really. When our students get their feet on a college campus, attending a college becomes just that much more of a realistic goal for them to set. College trips vary from year to year, ranging from two-year to four-year schools, in and out of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Whenever possible trips include a classroom experience, as well as a highlight of each campus’ unique features.
Why Visit Employers?
Career Exploration is integral to making an informed decision about the best match for you.
By visiting employers, our participants see a potential career in action. Human Resource professionals provide information on what a typical day looks like, company culture, how the college major matches to the job skill.
EOC conducts both in person and virtual employer connections.
Why Do Cultural Tours?
In particular, enriching, cultural field trips contribute to the development of students into civilized young men and women who possess more knowledge about art, have stronger critical-thinking skills, exhibit increased historical empathy, display higher levels of tolerance, and have a greater taste for consuming art and culture ... At EOC, Inc. it is about educating the entire person!
