"GPSEd was a good fit for me. I always felt everyone wanted the best for me. One experience that stands out to me is when I broke my leg and couldn't walk or work for multiple months. Don and everyone in GPSEd did a great job of accommodating me and making sure I could remain in the program. This stands out because it really shows how they wanted me to be successful and meet my goals."

"I wanted to be a mechanic and throughout the two years that has changed because GPSEd taught me there are a lot of other opportunities out there that suit me better. I learned about careers, benefits, wages and information that helped me decide to go into welding. I am grateful for joining GPSEd because I know who I am and what I want now."

"I have gained the knowledge of how to be a great worker and coworker. I’ve learned how to deal with situations like working on machines and communicating with professionals in the workplace that not many high school students experience."

"Because of GPSEd I learned there are options for careers. When I first came into the program I was skeptical about the trades career path. As I learned more and I started to work in manufacturing, I started to like it, and now I am interested in going into the trades."

"If there was one thing that GPSEd really focuses on, I would have to say professionalism, because we should know how to handle everyday situations while being calm under pressure."

"GPSEd is a lot different from school and I feel people that come to GPSEd should take the chance they get because you don’t have a lot of it, but if you make it your chance it will be the most memorable experience you get in your life."

"I liked the fact that we got to go to work through the GPSEd program. I felt this was very important for my future and the skills I learned were necessary. As a matter of fact, The first time I got to use a CNC machine at Waukesha Metals, I knew I wanted to work with them. If I hadn’t have enrolled in GPSEd, I would not have even known what that machine was."

"Through my years with GPSEd I have become a different person. I now have an outgoing personality that I got from this program, I used to be a real shy and quiet person. This is a real gain for my future job interviews and career placements."

"Being in GPSEd helped me see the importance of school and work. That partnership is important to my development because I was able to observe different corporations and how they operate. Seeing all of these businesses shows how much opportunity there is for learning different skills on the job."
