Cracking the code
At Curatace, we've been thinking about career success for a very long time. We've been in the trenches. We follow the data. We observe the trends. And, we've watched the successes and failures of multiple career initiatives
The fact is - there is no "one size fits all" approach that works for every student
So, we reverse-engineered the problem to determine what gets in the way of stellar career outcomes
Career preparation starts too late
No one is accountable for results
Limited access to industry expertise
Problems to Resolve
Career exploration isn't action oriented
Limited access to personal career guidance
Limited data on what knowledge, skills and abilities are essential to employers
What's our Approach?
The Curatace focus is on individuals and their outcomes, not simply their participation
And it’s not just about new grads - we believe serving graduates through their 10th year reunion and measuring their life and career satisfaction, benefits students, alumni and their institutions
Capturing the impact of career actions, and communicating college value, is essential to the success of the Curatace ecosystem
The Curatace Ecosystem Requires the Active Involvement of Three Cohorts
College / University Faculty & Staff
Career Centers and Alumni Relations play a key role in preparing students for their futures; faculty, academic advisors, supervisors, and student organizations may also contribute to successful outcomes
Alumni, Parents & Institutional Friends
Meaningful engagement of alumni, parents and friends through industry-specific and affinity-based Career Communities is essential to effectively mentoring/advising students and broadening their knowledge of potential future opportunities
Employers & Educational Providers
Career preparation is facilitated when the requirements of employers and further education providers, including graduate and professional schools, are well understood and communicated
