Career Connected Schools Professional Development Opportunity

JUNE 10th-TECH LAB

JUNE 11th-Room 1

If you can ONLY attend one day, DAY 1 is the most important day to attend.

DAY 2 can be done asynchronously.

We are excited to partner with Educators Cooperative to offer a two-day Train-the-Trainer session as part of our Career Connected Schools initiative.

What is this training? This session helps teachers at all levels, embed career-connected learning into existing instruction—no extra workload required. Participants will learn practical strategies to:

• Connect content to real-world careers
• Support students in exploring interests and strengths
• Facilitate meaningful career conversations
• Use ready-to-implement tools

A key focus is the RIASEC model (Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, Conventional), giving students a shared language to understand themselves and their future pathways.

Why it matters? Career-connected learning helps students see relevance, explore options, and build confidence and purpose.

What to expect

• Interactive, hands-on learning
• Ready-to-use strategies
• Time to collaborate and plan

Our goal is to build a K–12 awareness where all students can connect their learning to future opportunities and leave with a clearer sense of their future!

(If you are uanble to attend both days, email: brandee.ramirez@svusd.org to discuss options)
