Industry Involvement: Creating the leaders of tomorrow

National Restaurant Association Solutions is dedicated to helping ensure that the restaurant and foodservice industry remains the cornerstone of career-and-employment opportunities. Through the ProStart program, high school students can learn career-building skills and get a taste for success in an industry that is hungry for talent. But they can’t do it alone.

The success of the program and the future of the industry also depend on industry leaders like you. You can help create the leaders of tomorrow by supporting ProStart through:

Providing Mentored Work Experience

By seeking out ProStart students in your recruitment efforts, you can help students gain real-world experience and practical skills that help to shape their futures in the foodservice industry. This is also an opportunity to recruit possible long-term employees who have already committed themselves to working hard towards a rewarding career in the industry.

By mentoring a ProStart student, you can help to make a connection between their present performance and their future. Mentors provide overall support for their goals, career competence and character development. Download the Mentor’s Guide to learn more about providing Mentored Work Experience to ProStart students.
