Futures for Kids (F4K) is a fun and easy way for your child to explore different careers and understand the relevance of school as a means to future success. Through F4K, students can match their interests to almost 500 different careers and learn about the classes they need to take as well as the career outlook for North Carolina. Students can also ask questions from online mentors, called Career Coaches, through a monitored discussion board where they will connect with someone who can share first-hand what it takes to make it in that career.
The best part is, you can explore F4K with your child! Take a look at the results of their Matchmaker quiz, which matches their interests and skills with 40 different career options. Check out the Career Details on their “favorite careers,” and help them fill in their High School Grad Plan—all at www.f4k.org.
If your child doesn’t already have an account on F4K, contact F4K at info@f4k.org to get one set up.
