Career ExplorationWe encourage students to use evaluation tools like those in Naviance or through NC Careers to begin the self-exploration process. They can further explore careers through job shadowing, informational interviewing, part time employment, volunteering, internships, and summer programs. Once they have narrowed down their career choices, they can explore college majors through this tool and determine a college major and it's return on investment here. Finally, we will help students develop a professional resume.
