Effective Career Exploration and Planning Resources

TOM TORLAKSONState Superintendent of Public Instruction

Student Centered Career Readiness

Plan development requires answering:– Who Am I?– Where Am I Going?– How Do I Get There?

Being career ready means, in part, that a high school graduate has a viable postsecondary plan with, at least initial occupational goals, and understands the steps necessary to achieve those goals.

Engaged Imaginations

Einstein said:

“imagination is more important

than information or knowledge,”

Information is essential, but insufficient.

When we can visualize ourselves in appealing future scenarios (vacation, career…), a spark is ignited.

We become purposeful and intentional in the present to create the future we want.
