The Primacy of Career Development
2023
Overview
A spring 2022 survey by Edge Research for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation showed 70 percent of high school graduates ages 18-30 who did not attend college viewed on-the-job training as the best path to career advancement. Soon after I was appointed superintendent in Cajon Valley in 2013, the district conducted a needs assessment that asked local government officials, business owners, military leaders and clergy members this: \"If the school district was yours to run, what would you do differently?\" Overwhelmingly, the response was to stop stigmatizing the most important work in our community, including public service, law enforcement, fire and rescue, health care, construction and the military. After attending the ThinkaBit Lab with a group of 8th graders, I asked Ed Hidalgo, creator of the ThinkaBit Lab at Qualcomm, to help Cajon Valley get students to be enthusiastic and engaged every day of school. The curriculum is digitized so students can track their strengths and interests over time as they explore more and more career possibilities. Because Cajon Valley students have access to these data, they quickly take ownership and are equipped to enter the world of work with a strong vocational identity and the self-assurance to tell their story when a prospective employer says, \"Tell me about yourself.\"
