Students should start by creating lists of businesses that can be found in and around their community.  Small and large careers should be given consideration. Using this list created by your students, you are now adding to your personal supply of possible people to invite to participate in your local career fair.  Creating a solid foundation and networking using the knowledge of your students can be very beneficial in opening new opportunities to your school district. 

As suggested by high school counselors in a number of districts, the Wisconsin ACP Lessons use not only the Xello platform, but also incorporate the use of a number of other career readiness platforms, especially at the high school level. Please share this list of websites and platforms with your district technology department to make sure that students have been given access to these websites before they try to use the Wisconsin ACP Lessons.

Work Makes the World Go Round is an original song written and performed by George Dennehy in collaboration with the Virginia Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services, The VR Workforce Studio Podcast and Wilson Workforce and Rehabilitation Center Foundation’s Partners in Podcasting.
