MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL...WHAT WILL MY FUTURE BE...?
Summary:
Students will understand the variety of opportunities available in the world of work, the environment, the benefits, the employment opportunities, and the education, skills, and knowledge required for various career groups related to specific industries.

They will match their own skills, abilities, and interests to a variety of careers and determine several that interest them the most.
