Description
The 10th edition of School to Career builds on what made the previous editions so successful. Students explore careers using the career clusters and pathways framework; understand workplace expectations; develop career-readiness skills; and plan for life beyond graduation. School to Career provides students with the “how to” needed for preparing a résumé, searching for a job, taking on a work-based learning experience, exceeding employer expectations, managing personal finances, and funding postsecondary training and education. Case studies are used to examine challenges students may encounter in the world of work. • Communication, math, and technology skills are developed through activities and useful examples. • Each chapter provides insights on ethics and on using natural resources wisely. • Self-assessment opportunities help focus attention on the acquisition of key concepts.
