Career Resource Center |
Students work on their Education Development Plan (EDP), which enables them to make informed decisions about their future education and career. They are provided tools to help them answer the questions: “Who Am I?”, “ Where Am I Going?” and “How Am I Going to Get There?” Through interest inventories, assessments, and exploration opportunities, students are provided suggestions of careers that may interest them. Through integrated classroom projects they then research and discover what it takes to make it a reality, helping them understand the direct relevance of their current and future education. |
