Deonne and Corey share the story of Mazuma’s long-standing relationship with CAPS programs across the Kansas City metro—and how that collaboration has become a true wildfire of opportunity for students, educators, and industry partners alike.In Mazuma’s robust internship experiences students jump into meaningful projects, build real confidence, and get a firsthand look at what a supportive, people-centered workplace can look like. Deonne also talks about why durable skills like communication, adaptability, collaboration, problem-solving are not just “nice to have,” but absolutely essential in today’s workforce.The Network is all about discovering the CAPS Model.
