Helping kids find their unique passion recipe
Who are you at your core? Which activities best align to your core ingredients?
In core exploration, Metier empowers students to discover their innate gifts and to draw connections between themselves and opportunities they may not have thought about before. Exploration of personal attributes using hands-on or game-based activities, students reflect on their learning experiences and score themselves on a student-friendly scale to create their own personal attributes profile. Students are encouraged to consider clubs, activities, service learning, and careers that might showcase their unique selves
Which career clusters best fit your core? What might be your recipe for finding vocational happiness?
Why does flow matter when it comes to careers? In positive psychology, flow is an optimal state of consciousness wherein you feel and perform your best. Those with the most flow in their lives score the highest in ratings of well being and life satisfaction!
Students sample 16 Career Clusters® plus military, over 14 individualized and flexible units, to determine which one(s) make them come alive. In career exploration, there is intentional time built in to include business and industry speakers, career/college field trips, and view high school coursework as a path versus a means to an end.
By exploring Career Clusters®, fields and occupations, and engaging in hands-on, game-based career activities, students reflect on their learning experiences and score themselves on a student-friendly scale to create their potential Metier: the job and life they love and that loves them back!
