This week started with our students completing their MAP assessments, allowing them to reflect on their academic growth and continue building toward their future goals.
Then, continued with university presentations and meaningful conversations with professionals from a variety of fields, including marketing, medicine, business, and more. Students had the opportunity to ask questions, learn about different college and career pathways, and gain a better understanding of the possibilities available to them. 馃寧馃捈馃┖

A Day in the Life of an ANS Intern!
Follow Pastor Lovo, an ANS Senior, as he steps into the world of business through the ANS Internship Program!
This past summer, Pastor joined Invercasa, where he explored Managua`s catering industry by conducting market research, gathering data from local businesses, and transforming his findings into a strategic market analysis with actionable recommendations.
"I plan to study business in college, and this opportunity has taught me what it feels like to look for new business opportunities." 鈥� Pastor Lovo
From asking the right questions to uncovering new opportunities, Pastor discovered that every great business decision starts with great research!
