Career Cruising is a self-exploration and planning program that helps people of all ages achieve their potential in school, career and life.
BUILD SELF-AWARENESS: Users learn about themselves—their interests, skills, preferences and aspirations—so they can explore the opportunities right for them.
EXPLORE OPTIONS: They learn about career possibilities and educational pathways by exploring rich, engaging content.
CREATE A PLAN: A dynamic, actionable plan outlines the steps needed to achieve career, school and life goals.
MAKE IT REAL: Plans are then brought to life—whether for a career, job or college—by taking informed action.
