More About Us

Career Partners, Inc, a 501(c)(3) education non-profit organization, was founded in 2000 as a result of the 1997 “Educational Summit,” organized by then, Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Norma Dunwody, which brought together leaders from local business, government, school and community to address a concern that Culpeper Virginia graduates were not ready for the workplace.

Almost 20 years after inception, Career Partners has progressed as an all-volunteer organization with the same mission, and now operates seven (7) educational programs. The key to its success is the passion and drive of its Board of Directors, school teachers, shared staff and countless volunteers. Since its inception, over 50 leaders from this community have served on the Career Partners Board, and hundreds more as volunteers.

Today, Career Partners oversees 7 educational programs:

-Career Exploration

-E Squared

-Maker Energy

-Mentorship

-Mock Interviews

-STEM

-Teachers for Tomorrow
