THE CAREER COACH PLAYBOOK
Every day, Career Coaches are working to connect with as many students as possible. If you don’t know what you want to do after high school, your Career Coach will help you figure it out and put you on the fast track to success.
Your Career Coach will:
- Meet one-on-one with you to provide advice and guidance
- Expose you to careers with strong outcomes and salaries
- Recommend career paths that fit your goals and skills
- Connect you with the right community colleges and training programs
Even when they’re not meeting with students, Career Coaches aren’t sitting on the sidelines. They also:
- Work with economic developers to make sure training programs align with workforce needs
- Communicate with community colleges about programs and training opportunities
- Meet with local employers to help students get playing time (aka work experience) that will lead to full-time positions - like apprenticeships, part-time jobs, dual credit courses and two-year programs
