What’s Included with Career Learning

Focusing on Job-Ready Career Skills

Application—Personalized for the Future-Ready Student

Cramming, memorization, and repetitive task management tends to lead to zero recall down the road for many students. The missing link is in the application of the subject matter itself — the transfer of knowledge. We want students to be engaged in subject matter and careers of interest; practical application of real-world knowledge and experience is how to make a lasting impact. This is where Defined Careers™ takes career exploration to the next level.

Empowering Students for Career Readiness … & Life

Education shouldn’t occur in a vacuum. And it shouldn’t be viewed as a temporary experience. It should equip today’s learners with the skills needed to become tomorrow’s brightest, most confident workforce. We seek to change the way students learn about careers and the pathways they can take to get there as young adults. We do this through career based learning and career assessing.

Get Career Based Learning for Your Students

Our entire future is dependent on the current generation of students.

The more we align in order to grant them opportunities that support their future-readiness, the better we all are.
