Students of all ages need to be exposed to diverse career opportunities throughout their education. This becomes especially important for students taking a non-traditional route to complete high school for a high school equivalency (GED). As part of the Individual Student Alternative Education Plan (ISAEP) for high school GED students and adult ABE/GED and ESOL (English Speakers of Other languages) programs, exposure to a variety of careers can become a challenge since these programs are housed outside the traditional schools and technical centers. Henrico county Public Schools Adult Education program developed the Career Café as a way of providing high school GED students and adult ABE/GED and ESOL students’ access to career information.
