But it doesn't have to be.
Customized in collaboration with each school,
myBlueprint's School Career Development Certificate
will assist building leaders in developing an intentional scope and sequence full of career connected learning opportunities that encourage consistent, reflective career conversations throughout a student's high school journey.
One career education class across a students entire high school journey no longer makes sense.
The world has changed. It's time to adapt.
Research from the OECD suggests that consistent, diverse, and reflective two-way career conversations throughout a student's high school journey contribute to outcomes like:
You don't know what you don't know is as true today as it ever was. More career-connected exposure opportunities can lead to a better understanding of what we like, and what we don't.
Students who reported talking to a teacher about a career ambition by age 15 on average earned 3% more at age 30 than comparable peers who had not had such conversations.
Evidence from the Youth In Transition Survey (YITS) shows that career conversations with teachers and parent/guardian are associated with lower unemployment in adulthood.
We all want our students to feel prepared to succeed in life after high school. This program will help you play your part in making that happen, without it being one more thing.
There is room for a few more intrinsically motivated schools to be part of the proof of concept group during the 25-26 school year.
