Help guide students as they investigate and develop a college and career readiness achievement plan

College & Career Readiness invites students to explore a broad range of educational and career opportunities while learning to identify their career interests, aptitudes, and learning styles. Students discover that they can gain critical experience and develop job-related skills, including math, technology, teamwork, leadership, and effective communications. They’ll learn more about themselves, their interests/abilities, and valid educational/career choices as they develop a career portfolio while practicing the principles of personal finance.

Activities enable students to practice career and job search skills in a real-world context

• Career-Ready Practices activities give students real-world scenarios to practice applying the 12 Career Ready Practices.
• Career Portfolio activities guide students’ development of information and documents that show their school and career-plan progress.
• Career Counsel activities ask students to use decision-making, goal setting, and problem solving skills to write an ending.
• College-Ready Practices are activities designed to encourage students to think about what it means to be college ready.
