Exploration of Careers

The project was designed to improve dramatically the number of Indianapolis Public School (IPS) graduates that are better prepared to enter the workforce and contribute to our economy. The Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration (CILC) has developed approaches to modernize how students prepare for the workforce. We have implemented, facilitated, and created programs incorporating various technologies that effectively show an increase in understanding. The key is preparing students, during their middle school transformation years, to make choices that lead to well paying jobs and career options. Funding from the Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust allowed CILC and IPS to engage a group of students in preparing for adulthood and enables those students to leave a legacy to be used by future IPS classes for years to come.
