Office of College and Career Success

The Minnesota Department of Education and the Regional centers of Excellence are pleased to invite middle and high school teams to participate in a second free half-day workshop focused on continued support of the implementation of the Planning for Students' Successful Transition to Postsecondary and Employment: Personal Learning Plans legislation (120B. 125).

This legislation requires all students beginning no later than 9th grade to have a Personal Learning Plan around key elements.  This plan should be a life plan that includes academic scheduling, career exploration, career and employment related skills, community partnerships, college access, all forms of postsecondary training, and experiential learning opportunities. 

The Planning for Students' Successful Transition to Postsecondary Education and Employment (120B. 125) Toolkit provides resources around all required elements as well as some recognized strategies and partnerships that could assist with implementing this directive.  The training will provide further opportunities to discover what elements schools already have in place and what needs to be addressed.  Time for planning will be provided.

PSST II - 10/30/14 (HALF DAY Workshop 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.)
