In this segment Shellee Howard explains the core of their career‑discovery program for high‑school students. The process begins with a gamified assessment designed to match students' short attention spans. After completing the game, students receive a personalized profile confirming the fit, followed by three recommended career paths and three suggested college majors. For each recommendation, the program provides projected earnings and an AI‑impact forecast indicating whether the job is likely to be automated by the time the student graduates. The goal is to give students clear, data‑driven information so they feel confident enough to raise their hand and actively engage in their future planning.
