{"A":"Radford City Public Schools","B":"Passport to Career and College - Oh, The Places You'll Go! ","C":"Radford High School and Virginia Tech’s College Access Collaborative hosted a semester-long “Passport to Career and College” (P2C) career exploration program for freshmen.  Piloted for the first time in a face-to-face format, P2C sessions consisted of engaging activities designed to help students learn about their personal career paths and to encourage development of essential skills related to the 5 C’s\/soft skills, postsecondary options, applying for jobs, creating a resume and cover letter, and interviewing for a job.  Through P2C, students also had the opportunity to interact with college admissions representatives, various career professionals, and potential employers at the program-sponsored “Mingle Like You Mean It” career\/networking fair.      As a result of the P2C program, each freshman completed a career assessment, explored various career and college options, learned essential workplace readiness skills, and was able to apply many of those skills in a real-world setting.    \n","D":"Jamie Little, Education Specialist, jolittle@rcps.org","E":""}
