Every school’s goal is to prepare students for life after graduation. The question is: How do you help your students stand out when they’re applying for college, scholarships, internships, and careers?

In this webinar, we’ll explore how schools can use content creation as a pathway to career readiness. Whether students are involved in marketing, business, journalism, yearbook, photography, videography, student council, athletics, or other classes, clubs, and activities, creating content helps them develop the communication, storytelling, collaboration, and leadership skills colleges and employers value in any industry.

We’ll discuss practical ways to help your students build professional portfolios, gain hands-on experience, earn certifications and microcredentials, write stronger resumes, and discover internship and scholarship opportunities. We’ll talk about creating opportunities for students to collaborate with others and work on a team, which is a valuable skill. When students begin building real-world experience in middle and high school, they graduate with greater confidence and a distinct advantage as they pursue their next steps—all while helping position your school or district as a destination for student success.
