THINGS TO REMEMBER

An ECAP (Education and Career Action Plan) reflects a student's current plan of coursework, career aspirations, and extended learning opportunities in order to develop the student's individual academic and career goals.

Effective for the graduating class of 2013, every student in grades 9-12 will complete an ECAP Plan.

ECAP

CHOOSING A CAREER IS A BIG DECISION –

BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO SWEAT IT—PLANNING FOR

YOUR FUTURE IS NOT SOMETHING YOU DO ALL AT

ONCE.

IT'S A CONTINUOUS PROCESS.

Consider:

What types of work and school courses and activities appeal to you?

What interests you? What do you do well now, and what

skills have you gained through experience?

What values do you have regarding work?

TAKE A REALISTIC LOOK AT YOUR STRENGTHS, WEAKNESSES, AND

INTERESTS.
