These programs focus on strategies that expose students to their options earlier to help them make meaningful course selections and connect what they\u2019re learning to their post-secondary goals. Starting earlier means students have more time to build confidence in who they are, discover and explore options, and put plans in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Xello Plans helps students take ownership of their future. With nine different pathway options, students can create a plan that involves going to college, doing technical training, going straight to work, or something else entirely. Plans educates students about their options, suggests actionable next steps, and engages them with fun videos and modern designs.
