California schools select postsecondary planning solution to increase future success for students
FOLSOM, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–PowerSchool (NYSE: PWSC), the leading provider of cloud-based software for K-12 education in North America, today announced Visions In Education Charter School in Carmichael, California, has selected Naviance by PowerSchool as its primary college, career, and life readiness (CCLR) education technology solution. Through Naviance, Visions will uplevel its CCLR program by providing students access to high-quality resources and educational content to inform their postsecondary goals and futures.
“Based on our research and several of our counselors’ positive experiences using Naviance at previous institutions, selecting PowerSchool and their CCLR solution was an easy choice,” said Matt Patterson, Director of Student Services, Visions In Education. “Naviance has a proven track record of helping students successfully prepare for their postsecondary futures, and we look forward to offering this solution to students for years to come.”
Naviance helps students uncover their strengths and interests to make more informed decisions about their futures. Through its intuitive college, career, and life readiness platform, Naviance helps more than 10 million students in the U.S. discover their strengths and find their best-fit path after high school through a variety of helpful tools. Students can search for colleges that align with their specific interests, take career assessments, and stay organized by creating goals and to-dos.
Prior to PowerSchool, Visions managed its CCLR program through several internal processes co-dependent on one another. Visions was consistently challenged with updating students’ CCLR information across multiple platforms, ultimately causing operational pain points. Through Naviance, Visions will soon be able to provide intuitive self-discovery tools to help students navigate the broad range of college and career options available to them.
“By choosing Naviance as its CCLR program, it’s evident Visions In Education Charter School understands the importance of ensuring students from all backgrounds have access to the array of educational and career options available to them,” said Craig Greenseid, PowerSchool Chief Revenue Officer. “Providing schools with access to exceptional education technology is our top priority, and we look forward to helping Visions fortify its college, career, and life readiness program.”
