Classroom Connections Made Through World of Work Program to Children’s Future Careers
The World of Work program connects students to ideas and goals for their futures. Through the four level process World of Work presents, teachers guide their students through a series of lessons, activities, and experiences that help them understand what types of careers are available to them. The 4 levels of World of Work are simple: students hear about a career, tinker with it, meet a professional in that career, and then practice it. Virtual Meet a Pro chat sessions are always available for schools within the World of Work network to view, and sometimes industry professionals even come directly into the classroom to meet students!
Customer Service Representatives that are trained well and have skills to solve problems and care for customer concerns are in high demand. Deanna Reynolds from Team Kia and Team Mazda in El Cajon, California visited a classroom of third graders to share her experiences in the customer service field. The students in Mrs. Jones’ class were prepared to hear Deanna speak with many questions that impressed Deanna. The World of Work curriculum that is integrated into this classroom helps students think critically about their futures, so when they have Meet a Pro experiences they are better able to process how what the speaker is saying relates to their own future.
Deanna’s visit to Mrs. Jones’ classroom helped the students understand that good customer service practices are necessary in any field they may go into. Customer Service Representatives are important for a business’s growth and success, and Deanna was able to explain to students during this in-person Meet a Pro that the things they do and say at work really matter to a customer’s experience.

Exposure to Career Options at Early Age
World of Work tackles problems seen in the education system head-on. Every student who passes through the World of Work will be armed with career options which they have learned about, received hands-on experiences with, met a professional in the career, and have practiced skills needed in that career.
By using the RIASEC model to determine employment personalities, the World of Work not only gives every child a chance to learn about many careers, but also helps every child determine which career fits their personality, strengths, skills, and values. Students involved in World of Work will not only know the how and what, but they will understand the why to everything they are learning. With each lesson they have at school, children will see how the lessons involving everyday subjects relate to a new field and why it is important to learn those skills and values.

With the World of Work curriculum, students gain experience centered around six careers per grade level. If a student were to have the World of Work integrated into their education from Kindergarten to 12th grade, that would be 78 career options that children will have a deep understanding of upon high school graduation.
The exposure each child gains to different careers helps them to go down a path where their strengths, interests, and values are needed in the workplace. World of Work helps every student see that no matter what their skill set is, every skill set is valuable and every person has a place in their community and in the workforce that is needed.
The 4 levels of World of Work are simple: students hear about a career, tinker with it, meet a professional in that career, and then practice it.
