Follow on Google News | Gainesville High School Closing Workforce Skills Gap with YouScience Thanks to Carroll Daniel ConAll freshman students to receive the YouScience Profile Thanks to Sponsor
By: YouScience The online YouScience Profile uses "brain games" to capture real measures of aptitudes, which are the natural abilities most important to career choice. Through a scientific algorithm, students are given a highly personalized career exploration of their best-fit careers along with detailed information on more than 500 careers to expand their vision of opportunity. Upon completion, the YouScience Profile provides students engaging, affirmative feedback based on their aptitudes and interests, as well as in-depth information on specific careers that strongly match their natural abilities and interests. "This is an exciting opportunity for our company to play a role in helping close the workforce skills gap in our own community," said Brian Daniel, President of Carroll Daniel Construction. "The YouScience Profile results will allow these students to understand their natural talents and how to apply them to high demand jobs. This greatly benefits the students, as well as any industry facing critical labor shortages." The Metro Atlanta Chamber recently released an Accenture study that discovered a gap between education and workforce skills. YouScience addresses many of the recommendations made in this report by providing personal insight and market information that allows students to connect education with career options. By using the students' own portfolio of talents as a basis for career recommendations, they gain the confidence needed to succeed in a potential career. YouScience gives students personal insight, career recommendations and market information all in a single online location. Students then have the opportunity to work with their counselor at school or their parents at home to develop a more focused post-secondary education and skill development path into a successful high-growth industry career. "As a school system, I feel it's our responsibility to help prepare our students for success after graduation," At the same time, our school system can more effectively create the workforce needed in our community. "Leaders like Superintendent Creel and sponsors such as Carroll Daniel Construction have been actively engaged in working with YouScience to improve the success of Georgia students and ensuring Georgia is productive in providing successful workforce opportunities after graduation," For more information, please visit YouScience at www.YouScience.com, Carroll Daniel Construction at www.CarrollDaniel.com and Gainesville County Schools at www.GCSSk12net.
