Career training resources for high school counselors

Your high school students are preparing for one of the most pivotal moments in their young lives, and they're looking to you for direction. Your support is essential in helping students explore their options, choose the best program for their goals, and stay on track toward success.

A traditional four-year college experience likely isn't the right choice for every one of your graduates, but they (and you) are less familiar with other options.

That's where the Imagine America Foundation comes in. Since 1982, we have worked to connect students with practical, skills-based training that leads to professional stability. We offer scholarships, financial aid resources, information about today's most in-demand careers, and introductions to accredited, trustworthy career colleges and universities around the country.

We focus on career training programs that ensure students get the skills and job qualifications they need to meet industry and employer requirements. By working closely with schools that offer relevant training programs and employers that hire directly from those programs, the Imagine America Foundation helps your high school students find their path toward a fulfilling career.

A career education isn't right for all your students. But it is right for some of them.

Join our network of 32,000+ high school counselors who have helped award more than 100,000 Imagine America High School Scholarships to their students.

Which of your students would be a good candidate for a scholarship? Here’s who’s eligible:

High school seniors
Graduates who have earned a high school diploma or GED
Students who are in good standing at school and show an active interest in their career choice
Applications submitted until December 31 of the year they graduated

Together, we can help those students start the rest of their lives on a confident, career-focused path. Check out the resources we offer to high school counselors, including podcasts, webinars, blog posts, and our curated Counselors Corner email newsletter.
