College/Career Readiness
Think how many times people ask your child: "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
Students face a lot of anxiety answering this question. More than half of college students change their major at least once, often leading to extra coursework, delayed graduation, and tremendous angst. The Perfect Placement+ College & Career Readiness program will help your student understand why certain options would complement his or her natural strengths and inform their choices of classes, a college, a major, and even a career.
The Perfect Placement+ College & Career Readiness Package provides personalized support that begins by identifying a student's interest, personality, strengths, aptitudes, and values in high school. It concludes by teaching students and their families how to use these insights to focus the student's academic direction and make well-informed college and career decisions.
We help your student answer the most important questions: Who are you? What are you meant to do? Who are you meant to be?
