  • Learn how to better communicate your accomplishments on a professional application such as scholarships, college entrance applications, resumes, and cover letters for employment
  • Have more experience and be better able to communicate during job interviews
  • Be encouraged to set new goals, continue building skills and assets, and broaden interests
  • Win a cash prize
