America's largest
school-to-work network.
Built to help young people discover employers, industries and career pathways before they're expected to decide what's next.
We built what was missing.
Young people are expected to make some of the biggest decisions of their lives before they've had a real chance to understand the world of work.
We didn't think their first meaningful interaction with an employer should be a job ad.
So we built Explore Careers, a free platform connecting students, parents, counselors and educators with leading employers, industries and career pathways across America.
A place where young people can discover industries they didn't know existed. Meet employers before they're ready to apply. Understand college, trade, technical, apprenticeship and direct-to-work pathways. Ask questions. Explore opportunities. And make better-informed decisions about what comes next.
Our mission is simple: give every young person the access, information and connections they need to discover what's possible, before they're expected to decide.
