FALL MEET & GREET ‘25

This morning’s Fall Meet & Greet was a wonderful start to the day for our Kankakee County CEO students. Hosted in a “business before hours” style, the event gave our students the chance to practice real-world networking skills, including shaking hands, making small talk, asking good questions, and speaking confidently with business and community leaders from across the county.

These interactions are a core part of the CEO experience. They help students build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and understand the value of strong professional relationships. We also appreciated the opportunity to highlight program updates and share some of the exciting work our students are undertaking this year.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to attend and support our students this morning. And a special thank you to Kankakee Community College for welcoming us into their beautiful new meeting space and helping make this event a success.

Kankakee County CEO is where students grow through real experiences, real connections, and real opportunities.
