Exploring Careers - Career Exploration For Middle School and High School

Career Exploration That Makes Sense for Young People

The Exploring Careers Package starts with interests, then relates these to the latest data with an interactive, flexible approach that meets National Career Development Guidelines.

Fourteen Major Interest Areas. Exploring Careers components are organized around the 14 major GOE interest areas—assessment and exploration is driven by what kids like to do rather than work experience and educational attainment.

Profiles and "skill samplers". The heart of the reference book profiles real people in real jobs—students get to see what people actually do in their jobs all day. Skill samplers highlight skills required in certain jobs and ask readers if they have them.

Plus, the system has interactive assessment and activity components, is based on the latest occupational data, uses a flexible approach, and meets National Career Development Guidelines.
