What educators and students are saying about FUTUREFOCUS
I love FUTUREFOCUS! It is by far the best career guidance program I've found for students in the middle school age group. I especially like that it focuses on careers that are combinations of interest areas.

The students and parents love your interest inventory instrument ... some parents have even told me that this activity has motivated their child to work harder in school, finally making a connection between school and their futures. When we do this in class, the kids are glued to the process. Thank you for creating this wonderful tool. I am sure we will use it for years to come.

The kids loved the alcohol and drug abuse information section. That brought up lots of questions and comments. The kids also seemed to enjoy the career information. Most of them seemed to agree with the results.

I found the FUTUREFOCUS program to be a concise but comprehensive program that is easy to deliver. The program touches on many points that are foundational in career education in a way that appeals to early adolescents. The students enjoyed using the Web site to look at careers that interest them based upon their Interest Inventory scores. I also wanted to mention that I found your company to be very supportive as I used the FUTUREFOCUS materials for the first time. Everyone I communicated with was very helpful and quick in responding to my requests.

I am very impressed with FUTUREFOCUS. I have done career counseling for 14 years and this is a great tool for 8th graders.

We loved FUTUREFOCUS! The students and teachers really liked the web site reports -- and so did I. I like how the careers are presented to them with the range for education required and the range from less to more people oriented. The link to the Occupational Outlook Handbook site was also very helpful. As a Counselor, my favorite section was the True / False section with drug and alcohol related behaviors. We really had some lively discussions and I think this section opened their eyes.

You should feel very proud of what you have developed and for the way you have listened to the needs of our students.
