Passport to Careers is Northeast Ohio’s premiere youth talent event and a signature program of a regional portfolio of offerings available to local high schools.
The program, celebrating its 12th anniversary in November 2025, is an expanded event that builds on the success of Passport to IT Careers by now including Finance career pathways alongside IT/Tech. Students will engage with professionals in Information Technolgy, Computer Science, Banking, Insurance, Accounting, and Securities & Investments, while also exploring post-high school learning opportunities across both industries.
Speed rounds with six different IT or Finance Professionals.
Students complete a gameshow-like activity to learn about post-secondary learning opportunities such as NEO Universities, Community Colleges, and work-bound program providers (like Urban City Codes and Tech Elevator) and the US military.
Students choose between three breakout rooms that will showcase IT/Tech/Finance careers in leading NEO companies.
