Ohio's Career Passport Guidelines.
Ohio State Dept. of Education, Columbus.
This publication provides sample components of the Ohio Career Passport, including the rationale and purpose of each. Section 1 contains examples of the letter of verification, a letter from a school or district administrator, which confirms that the individual is a student at the school. Written on school letterhead, it sends the signal to the potential employer or admissions officer that the school endorses the Career Passport and the career development process. Section 2 provides samples of a student-developed personal data sheet or resume and helps the student learn how to develop a resume. Section 3 includes three parts to provide validation of performance. Part 1 focuses on the career narrative, a one-page support or reflection written by the student, that defines their career goals, explains their next step after high school, and includes a "Plan B" if the next step does not work out. Part 2 focuses on evidence of student skills, including learner competencies the student achieved: a high school transcript, with evidence of attendance; any locally-developed listing of learner competencies by curriculum area; and specific competencies attained by vocational and tech prep students. Part 3 focuses on verification of employability skills, which asks students to choose two SCANS (Secretary's Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills) competencies and describe briefly how they exhibit these skills. Suggested formats are found at the end of the document. Additional recommended contents are listed. (YLB)
