What is NAVIGATE?
Academic & Career Planning (ACP) - InspireWI and Xello
The focus of October's NAVIGATE lesson is Academic & Career Planning (ACP). Students will be introduced to two very valuable ACP Resources: InspireWI and Xello.
InspireWI is our local partner that helps connect our students with meaningful career experiences right here in our area. Opportunities available to our students include; job shadows, work co-ops, and a variety of field tips and career exploration events. This year, there will be many virtual and in-person opportunities for students. For more information visit: InspireWI.org
Xello is an online program that is designed to help every student understand and navigate their future academic and career possibilities. Xello helps students discover relevant college, university, trade, and career options based on their personality, skills, and knowledge. All students have access to Xello at anytime. Ask your child to show you their Xello Dashboard!
