Career Projects · Coming soon

Try the real work of a career, at home.

Each Career Project turns one career into a short, real task that a student can complete at home over a week or two. The student sends in their work, and a practitioner from that field writes back with honest, encouraging feedback. There are no marks and no rankings.

From choosing a project to reading the feedback

  1. 01

    Choose a project

    Pick a career you are curious about and a project that goes with it.

  2. 02

    Work on it at home

    Follow a few short, clear steps at your own pace. A parent can help, but the work is yours.

  3. 03

    Send in your work

    Upload what you made, whether that is a sketch, a model, a short report or a recording.

  4. 04

    Read the feedback

    A practitioner writes back about what you did well, what to look at again and one thing to try next.

Why the feedback matters

Reading about a career tells a student what the job is. Doing a small piece of the work tells them whether they enjoy it. That is why each project ends with a note from someone who actually does the job.

For parents, the feedback is also a window into how your child thinks and works, and a good starting point for a conversation at home.
