Career Development Elementary

Inspiring students to expand their horizons and build multiple possible career-life aspirations.

Career Development in Kindergarten to Grade 7 builds optimism and self-knowledge by asking students to identify and develop a sense of self, their personal interests and passions, and their skills and competencies through learning experiences in their school and their community. Career development encompasses reciprocal relationships, local and global needs and opportunities, and cultural and social awareness. It challenges stereotypes by expanding horizons, building aspirations, and creating more awareness of multiple career-life options.
