History

The Exploring Post program was established by the Boy Scouts of America as a high-adventure, service, and leadership program. The program later evolved into its own division, Learning for Life, where the Explorers started to establish more of the career-based education that we see in the program today. Exploring Posts are intended to expose students to various career paths early on through hands on activities and mentorship.

What is this program all about?

This will be Medtronic’s 21st year hosting an Exploring Post. Medtronic’s Biomedical Exploring Post program is geared toward young adults interested in math and sciences. Each meeting aims to provide students with hands on activities or discussions and presentations given by expert engineers and scientists. Students are given the opportunity to learn more about the various technical career opportunities that lie in front of them and ask lots of questions along the way.
