Students and Parents
Today’s students face choices far more complex than anything their parents did. Over 1,800 majors to choose. Rising costs. Shifting job markets. Increasing income demands. And very little structured guidance.
The truth is simple:
The system isn’t broken — it’s outdated.
It was built for a world that no longer exists.
That’s why students and parents must learn to advocate for themselves.
And that’s where Pathways comes in. Pathways uses a proven process used for talent development in business and industry for decades that has been validated for use with teenagers and college students.

What Students Actually Need (But Seldom Get)
Most schools try hard. Most parents care deeply.
But the traditional guidance system cannot give students:
- an understanding of their strengths and motivations
- direction that aligns with income realities
- clarity between majors, careers, and job paths
- tools to research careers effectively
- guidance on what employers actually look for
- a plan that fits who they are — not who the system assumes they are

Students walk away confident — not overwhelmed.
Why Start Early?
Students who start preparing in middle school or high school make better decisions because they have:
- more time to explore interests
- access to school and community opportunities
- room to adjust their path without losing time or money
- clarity for college applications, programs, and internships
- a stronger sense of who they are and where they’re headed
What Parents Want To Know
Is this accurate? Is this worth it? Will this help my child succeed?
Yes — and here’s why:
- The assessments reveal strengths that students (and parents) often can’t articulate.
- The worksheets and tools give your child actionable skills, not vague advice.
- The plan helps avoid costly major changes or mismatched programs.
- Students gain self-awareness that improves confidence, communication, and resilience.
- You finally get clarity instead of uncertainty.
It shows them who they already are — and what to do with it.
