Why is it important to get an Early Start?

According to the US Department of Education;
”Elementary school is not too early to start teaching your child about career awareness. It is important for your child to become aware of how his or her schooling is connected to a successful future.”

Career Resource Guide and Magazine – Includes definitions for thirty-featured careers, a crossword, wordsearch, project sheet, and articles by noted professionals that offer advice on many topics that help kids grow to be all that they can be.

Dreammate Success Vision Portrait – If seeing is believing, then our Dreammate Success Vision poster delivers. The Success Portrait gives students the ability to continually “Picture the Possibilities”. Students are photographed in the attire of one of the thirty-featured occupations. The image is then digitally inserted into the related work environment. Every student is given their own DreamMate to encourage and help them believe more fully in their future.

Interactive Presentation – Ever wish that you could get professionals to talk to your students about the possibilities and share with them exactly what it takes to be successful? We've answered the call with our 7 volume series totaling 21 professionals who uniquely introduce your students to their way of life and enlighten them on the road to success. Delivered over a 7 year career day session, each volume is guaranteed to make a long lasting impression on your students. No more difficult time getting quality guest speakers. Not to mention consistent controllable messaging in each presetation.

Finally, students get to learn about lifestyles options available to them. The volume one video features a Dentist, Entrepreneur, Educator and Real Estate mogul that show case their homes while revealing their secret of success. This begins the process of career awareness and preparation. We then tie in educational requirements so students can make the connection between their choices in school and their future career options. In the end, students will have a clear understanding of how their educational choices today align with the quality of life they aspire to achieve in the future.

If your students require an approach that does not require the lifestyle piece, you may opted for the career choice presentation instead. Your DMK rep will help you make the choice that is right for you.
