At Gladeo, we strive to ensure our partners have access to the most relevant and up-to-date information possible, especially in this fast-paced world where AI is shaking up every industry! From insightful career profiles, and new technology, to knowledge-packed course content, interviews, and thought leadership pieces, we bring you news from the frontlines. You can also catch us live at one of the many conferences we present at! Here are some of our updates for this quarter:
New LMS Functionalities for Course Delivery
Gladeo’s ESSA-Level IV certified Career Development Course, now called Gladeo FutureReady, has been relaunched on a new platform that supports seamless integration with various SSO/SIS systems such as Clever, Classlink and LMS platforms such as Canvas, Google Classroom.
Using video modules, interactive assessments, and personal reflections, the course guides learners through self-exploration, career pathway exploration, and building career readiness skills like resume writing, how to network, and understanding how AI is changing the workplace. All chapters include pre and post-surveys, reflections, quizzes, and assignments.
The platform is adaptable, offering options from fully self-guided to teacher-guided learning.
The platform also includes powerful standards-based reporting allowing teachers and administrators to gain insights on individual to district-level usage, engagement, progress, and performance.
The course is aligned to ASCA National Standards for Students, ASCA Student Standards: Mindsets & Behaviors for Student Success, and California CDE CTE Standards for Career Ready Practice.
