We know that there is no one path to success for you student and that that there is also no single starting point.
To help your student identify the most effective and appropriate starting point, our partners have pulled together a number of different resources that focus on self-discovery and helping your student to identify strengths, talents and interests. Once we've helped your student undertake this challenge, we can help them CONNECT that new self-knowledge about their motivations and assets into a career pathway. |
These are from the ASK curriculum, which uses Indiana Career Explorer. These will help your student with what they're good at and what that means.
