Webinar Description
Thursday, March 19 at 2:00 PM (ET) | 11:00 AM (PT)
As students prepare for life after graduation, schools are being asked to support a wider range of post-secondary pathways than ever before. This webinar offers a future-ready approach to growth that helps educators align how students are prepared for college, careers, and life beyond high school.
This session will explore how life, work, and college-readiness skills work together to support long-term success, and how schools can intentionally develop these skills through everyday practices, advising, and school culture. Leaders will gain practical strategies they can apply immediately to strengthen student confidence, independence, and decision-making.
Participants will gain a clearer, more holistic definition of readiness and actionable ideas for building coordinated supports that help every student move forward with purpose and direction.
