PPBEA has created the "MARKETPLACE" as the primary tool for users to explore and find opportunities they are interested in. The MARKETPLACE was modeled after other websites like Indeed.com to provide a user-friendly interface for applying to, communicating about, and following through with Work-Based Learning opportunities with local businesses. This site has been built for students in middle school and high school to help connect your personal talents, career interests and aptitudes to the world of work in the Pikes Peak region.

Pikes Peak Library District is one of many community business partners with PPBEA and has participated by posting two school-outreach opportunities on the MARKETPLACE. We hope to continue to grow and connect with young adults and education professionals in the Pikes Peak region through this platform. PPBEA offers so much to in-school youth in our community and the businesses that hope to attract new talent to their workforces. To access hundreds of opportunities, create your online account at ppbea.org/register. If you have any other questions, contact them at info@ppbea.org for more information.
