Golden Path Solutions is committed to helping you do what you do best — preparing your students for the future and setting them up for success. We do this by fostering connections between students, employers, and schools. We help students understand their skills and talents and the career paths they may want to pursue and potentially connect them with employers who need them for their future workforce. 

Students use our tool, Compass, to record their experiences and get insight into careers that align with their skills. You, as the school administrator, can use Compass to see how each student is progressing in their studies and what their interests are both in and out of school.  These details are useful for curriculum planning, distinguishing what careers a student may be interested in, and identifying the employers you may want to introduce them to, ultimately enabling you to prepare students for what’s next after graduation. Golden Path Solutions provides you with a simple solution that can help ensure your students are planning for the future and connects your school with local employers.

HOW IT WORKS

Golden Path Solutions partners with high school and college students to create a profile on our Compass website. We help students by doing an extensive assessment and building their profile, which includes information such as the classes they’ve taken, their experiences, extracurricular activities, hobbies, and their personality. All of this helps students identify the unique skills and talents they possess. Compass then compiles that data and uses Holland Codes as indicators to identify what careers they may enjoy the most. Compass can also make jobs with local employers searchable for students, providing awareness of what jobs are out there and may be of interest to the student. Finally, Golden Path can connect students with potential employers that may be interested in adding them to their future workforce. This connection can lead to an employer investing in the student’s education through a scholarship or sponsorship agreement.

Using Compass as the foundation, we can create a connection between students and employers and build a unique partnership between schools and companies. If employers can work with schools to develop curriculums and identify the skills that are attractive to an employer, things like career fairs, work opportunities, internships, or summer jobs become even more powerful. This model will help your school connect more deliberately and effectively with local employers and give students more exposure to different career paths.

Imagine what could happen if a student has better insight into their skills and talents so that they can make more informed decisions about their future. Compass empowers you to have those important conversations with students about life after school. Additionally, there is an opportunity to create a more collaborative and meaningful relationship between your school and local employers. Everyone wins!
