>> My name is Debra Hayman [assumed
spelling] and I am the president
    00:00:05.450 --> 00:00:09.460
of an adult career technical educational school.
    00:00:09.460 --> 00:00:16.080
Well, the school is for students 18 and above,
and it is located in the District of Columbia.
    00:00:16.080 --> 00:00:20.380
The majority of our students
are either high school dropouts,
    00:00:20.380 --> 00:00:29.690
or students that did not attend college, that
are seeking a certified career technical skill.
    00:00:29.690 --> 00:00:38.160
And we provide the pathway for them to get back
on the road of education to obtaining a skill
    00:00:38.160 --> 00:00:43.010
and a license, and the most
important thing, obtaining a job.
    00:00:43.010 --> 00:00:49.670
The most popular is the emergency
medical technical training program.
    00:00:49.670 --> 00:00:56.160
Initially, for, intended to provide and
about 150 students with the training.
    00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:01.650
And we quickly to grew to
150 students every 12 weeks.
    00:01:01.650 --> 00:01:06.390
I'm a chameleon, so I do lots of things.
    00:01:06.390 --> 00:01:17.190
You know, especially, as it relates to the
school, you don't just stay in your office.
    00:01:17.190 --> 00:01:24.290
You're constantly fundraising, developing
partnerships, interacting with students,
    00:01:24.290 --> 00:01:30.680
of course having a connectivity
with your staff and faculty.
    00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:35.040
So, I do a multitude of things
in the course of a day.
