Parents and guardians are one of the most important keys to a young person's success in education and in employment. In today's economy, parents and guardians need to be as well informed about their child's opportunities in the 21st century workforce as school guidance counselors and teachers.
On November 15, 2007 the Employment & Training Administration and the National Parent Teacher Association (PTA) partnered to produce and release the PTA Goes to Work Toolkits. The PTA Career Planning Toolkit seeks to provide school personnel, students, and families with information that will better enable high school age youth to utilize available resources in assisting with career planning and to help them make the right academic decisions that will affect successful transitions from school to work.
