How Educators Can Use HirePaths
At HirePaths, our goal is to help parents be intentional about exploring all types of career paths with their children. In addition, educators who intentionally weave career exploration into classroom activities can quickly expand the breadth of their students’ career exposure and open the doors to many possibilities!
HirePaths regularly publishes an email newsletter with information you can share with your students and their families about all the options for post-secondary training and careers, including:

- Classroom worksheets to help your kids explore careers and the HirePaths website
- Career quiz for students to narrow down the Kansas industries they may be most interested in
- Engaging stories about successful young people and the path they took to establish their careers

- Articles for parents you can share through classroom communication and social media
