Career curious school cultures promote student discovery of their career identity and the alignment between their educational experiences and future plans. They have regular opportunities to engage with people and information about the world of work. By doing so they develop a growing autonomy to consider who they are, evaluate how they are growing, purposefully consider academic and extracurricular options, and develop plans leading to their goals.
Career Connected schools promote a career-curious culture. Teachers engage students in ongoing conversations about their strengths, interests, and workplace values. Through a common career language which includes the RIASEC and a dialogic approach, students engage in career conversations with other students, teachers, families, and community partners. They own an update their plans regularly, exploring a wide range of options. Career Connected Schools connect the work of the school with the work of life.

This model helps individuals align their interests, skills, and values with potential career paths, thereby supporting informed decisions about jobs and educational pursuits. Widely used in career planning and counseling, the RIASEC model offers a structured approach to exploring vocational identities and understanding how personal preferences can lead to fulfilling careers.
