Be Pro Be Proud Tennessee returned to Sumner County Schools in February. Be Pro Be Proud Tennessee is a nationwide workforce development program supported by the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce and Meta’s Gallatin Data Center. The mobile workshop introduces students to career pathways in technical professions through Meta Quest headsets and other virtual reality technologies. The goal is to open new avenues for students by highlighting high-demand, well-paying careers that do not require a traditional four-year degree. The workshop provides hands-on learning experiences in industries such as welding, heavy equipment operation, electrical work, manufacturing, construction, forestry, agriculture, commercial truck driving and more.
