In
addition to other programs designed to build the image of the
Professional Engineer, CSPE takes an active role in Job Shadow Day.
Celebrated
on Groundhog's Day yearly, Students across America
"shadow" workplace mentors as they go through a normal day
on the job. The students get to see firsthand how the skills learned
in school relate to the workplace.
CSPE
members continue their active involvement in this worthy program.
Participation both in terms of engineers and students increases
yearly. CSPE and other engineers are also working to help
build the "Virtual Job Shadowing," which allows students
exposure to over 20 different professions over their computer.

more information on Job Shadow Day, or to get involved and allow
students to "shadow" your engineering efforts, visit one
