Help your students make smooth transitions from the classroom to meaningful jobs
An important key to student success is preparing for the transition from high school to a first career. To help students make this transition, School to Career provides guidance by covering important twenty-first century life and career skills. By studying this text, students will learn personal skills, decision-making skills, and employability skills that will help create a foundation as students graduate from high school. Skills for success such as teamwork and problem solving, communicating on the job, and leadership are also covered. Opportunities to research and learn about careers using the States' Career Clusters allow students to assess skills and abilities to help make decisions about a career that works from them. Included in the exploration process are learning about college and other post-secondary programs, as well as funding an education.
