Our Operators
BridgeYear operators make our mission possible. They are at the forefront of educating middle and high school students about high-demand, high-growth career opportunities and ensure the success of our Career Test Drive® fairs. Many of our operators go on to become educators, advisors and forces for change, making them the future of our organization.
