Skills for Success Program: A Health Career Pipeline

Dr. Olapeju Simoyan authored "Skills for Success Program: A Health Career Pipeline" in the Fall 2021 issue of Berks County Medical Society’s Medical Record. Read it on page 37 and flip to page 30 for one of the student’s projects she references.

The program gave local high school and college students the opportunity to learn more about working in healthcare and arranged mentors in the profession they were interested in to help develop a better understanding.

Program funding for Skills for Success was provided by the US State Department through the Citizen Action Diplomacy Fund, made available for community projects for alumni of Fulbright and other State Department-sponsored international exchange programs. Dr. Simoyan was a 2012-2014 Fulbright scholar.
