“Being chosen for the Disney College Program is a dream come true,” stated Bryce Hessler, a Business Management student at Penn Highlands. “Not many get to have an experience like this while in college and I’m so excited to make the most of it. I’m hoping to make a lot of connections and learn about management within a large company.”

The Disney College Program allows participants to network with professionals throughout The Walt Disney Company, take part in learning and career development sessions, and live and work with people from all over the country. Participants will build transferable skills such as problem-solving, teamwork, effective communication, and more.

“Penn Highlands is focused on giving our students the ability to make the most of the opportunities available to them,” stated Rob Sekerak, Regional Center Director. “Bryce saw an opportunity and seized it. We couldn’t be happier for him.”

Bryce plans to earn his associate degree in Business Management from Pennsylvania Highlands Community College. His aspirations include operating his own business one day.
