When I think back to when I was in high school, there are so many real-world skills that I wish we were taught. Being exposed to more conversations about career options and career readiness is one of those things. I’m sure so many of you feel the same way!

Now as a school counselor, you have the opportunity to have these conversations with your students so they can explore all kinds of career options and feel confident in getting (and keeping!) a job. Career preparation is an amazing way to make an impact on your students. The only problem is, how do you do this in an engaging way?

If you’ve been using your precious time searching for career activity ideas on Pinterest and Google, I’m here to save you. Inside this episode, I’m highlighting my favorite career activities for high school students and how you can use them.

They’re broken down into categories and they are all aligned with ASCA mindsets and behaviors.
