Start Small, Dream Big: How Educators Can Launch Profession-Based Learning

Wednesday, May 1 – Time: 11:30 AM CT
In a time when global employee engagement is declining—and workplace stress is rising—educators are uniquely positioned to change the narrative. Gallup’s State of the Global Workplace 2024 report found that only 21% of employees feel engaged at work, while disengaged workers report higher stress levels than even the unemployed.
What if we could change that… starting in high school?
Join us for a free, fast-paced webinar to explore how experience.work, the digital platform created by the CAPS Network in partnership with American Student Assistance (ASA), helps educators launch authentic, profession-based learning (ProBL) experiences that connect students with purpose, professionals, and the world of work.
