Tuesday, July 16, 9:15AM
Jean Eddy
CEO and President at American Student Assistance, and Author
Sadly, nearly half of today’s kids are not adequately prepared to make informed, confident decisions about what they want to do after high school. Join American Student Assistance (ASA) President & CEO Jean Eddy for a thought-provoking examination of today’s career and workforce preparedness. In her new book Crisis-Proofing Today’s Learners: Reimagining Career Education to Prepare Kids for Tomorrow’s World, Jean explores how and why career readiness education must be revamped to prepare teens for the future. It's a clarion call to action: if we don’t change how we approach career readiness education, we will irreparably fail our kids.
