Chancellor Academy’s Vocational Education Program
Chancellor Academy is committed to providing its students with an education that prepares them for a successful transition from school to work, to post secondary education, and to independent living. We do this by providing them with opportunities to explore a wide variety of work options and opportunities and by providing them with the opportunity to obtain the required bases of academic and vocational skills.
The Vocational Education Coordinator meets with each student individually. Vocational assessments are administered to assist students in making a career plan suitable to their aptitudes. Students receive ongoing learning experiences designed to increase their awareness of vocations that fit their abilities, interests and aptitudes. Students have interviews with professionals in their field of choice, research the educational requirements of their particular field, write resumes, receive interviewing instruction with video taped interviews, examine the use of technology in their particular field , secure viable part-time employment, and complete a research paper related to their career goals and plans. Specific career objectives may consist of applications to colleges, vocational schools, military services, businesses, and/or apprenticeship programs. All students meet individually with members of the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation who offer financial assistance and guidance to each student based on their individual needs.
