Registration begins in the fall of each school year and is on a first-come-first-served basis. Schools agree to provide a CLRE activity before and after student participation at Careers in Gear to create a holistic learning experience. Careers in Gear targets 9th-grade students in Southern Oregon as they move to choose vocational pathways in their high school education.
