A win for all involved! 👏 Betsy Jewell Certified Career Coach As a graduate coordinator, I observe issues of students getting into the program and then changing tracks. This tool could significantly help to avoid delays in graduation, and delays in general. Educator feedback I am a first-gen college student. Compared to my peers I often feel behind or as if I am missing key information. I also have ADHD and anxiety. Coach allows me to go into a professional setting more confidently. I have friends who are in a similar situation to me who would benefit from Coach! Learner feedback When you think about your standard support services, such as how to build a resume or prepare for your job interviews, any career coach or guidance counselor can offer that. But Coach also provides market insights, including the pay scale for certain roles. Being able to provide that information in real time to STARs can help boost their confidence. Natalia Lara Director, Product Design, STARs Inclusion Mode, Opportunity@Work This is a phenomenal tool for nursing students. Shakira Henderson Dean, University of Florida College of Nursing Coach is an engaging tool on its way to support youth and young adults with access to on-demand career coaching. Juan Santamaria Associate Director of Alumni Advancement, Year Up United Being afraid to ask "dumb" questions are a thing of the past. Coach is able to take any question and make the user feel like what they ask is legitimate.
