The Journey Program is an immersive career exploration experience designed to engage students early in the important work of self-reflection and career planning. Our experienced facilitators skillfully guide students throughout the program, helping them gain career clarity and confidence to embrace their future with excitement, possibility, and promise.

Designed for 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### students, this program draws inspiration from renowned career exploration expert Dr. Katherine Brooks, author of You Majored in What?, and the work of Bill Burnett and Dave Evans, authors of the New York Times best-selling book Designing Your Life.

The program is divided into four 90-minute sections: Reflect, Imagine, Plan, and Build, each progressively building upon the knowledge and skills acquired in the prior sessions. A workbook is provided to students, serving as a valuable companion encompassing all the activities and resources they need throughout the program and beyond. The experience is customized based on format (virtual, in-person, in-class) and length and includes the following elements:
