Description:

This website is great for inspiring our youth to explore various careers. The site offers a fun formula for exploring careers depending upon one's interest. It is cleverly divided into "interest" categories such as; music, medicine, law, technology, art / design, sports, exploration, science and math. The goal is for students to explore different areas while relating them to what they enjoy. Students will find many games and job descriptions and might be cleverly surprised to find careers that they might have not known existed. It is enormously helpful for planting a seed on the importance of college in respect to career choices. What a great tool for getting students to start thinking about how they can use their talents and interests professionally!
