Career readiness is the process of preparing students of any age with the essential skills they need to find, acquire, maintain, and grow within a job.
Career readiness education is critical in schools because it prepares students for life after college as they begin their careers, equipping them with the skills necessary to navigate the workforce.
According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, career readiness skills, or what they refer to as transferable or employability skills, “provide students with a competitive edge during interviews and internships for current and future careers” and “can differentiate a good employee from a great one.”
These critical skills, not often made a priority in schools, give students the edge they need to land jobs.
A sample of our career readiness workshops include the following:
- Career Exploration
- Self-Advocacy and Communication
- From the Classroom to the Workplace
