The pandemic has setback learning and reshaped career opportunities and challenges for young people, especially those from economically disadvantaged communities. With an upcoming school year different from any other, how can we provide ALL students with the opportunity to see themselves in a wide variety of career roles and help them make informed career decisions?
In this webinar, industry thought leaders and educators from across the country will discuss how districts can provide equitable access to career experiences. You will also learn how project-based learning can play a critical role in the process of career exploration.
Registrants that attend live will receive a certificate of attendance and free trial access to Defined Careers, the new career-experience platform from Defined Learning. Registrants who cannot attend live will receive a recording of the webinar via email
