Ready, Set, Go: Career Navigation Modules
This Career Navigation toolkit supports high school students - as well as their advisors and advocates - to develop a strong plan that reflects their personal, educational and career interests. The Toolkit is a set of customizable resources that were developed by Shared Lane in partnership with the NYC Public Schools Office of Student Pathways.
All students develop a strong plan that includes career interests
The toolkit uniquely situates postsecondary planning within a context of career pathways, explores the promise of workforce training, and offers guidance on engaging with a segment of NYC’s robust postsecondary education and training ecosystem. Many of these resources are student facing, some are downloadable for families and caregivers, and others are designed to be used by counselors, advisors, youth advocates and trainers of these groups.
