“I didn’t know what I was good at. Now I have a plan, and people who believe in it.”Lohith, a CTC student
Backed by educators
Built with the people who
know students best.
Elementary school counselors
Career discovery should begin with curiosity.
Lead counselors LaTesha Newell and Nikka Aghazadeh emphasized that upper-elementary students are developing their interests and sense of self. Early career exploration builds awareness, confidence, goal-setting, and stronger connections between school and real-world opportunities.
High school teachers
Students need career readiness before graduation.
Heritage High School educators highlighted CTC’s versatility, the importance of career-readiness skills before postsecondary education, and the need to reduce the stress students experience when making career choices.
