FutureForward
Seamlessly connecting employers, educators, and students in experiential and work-based learning opportunities that connect classrooms to careers and life to learning.
About FutureForward
FutureForward is an online tool created to connect Minnesota students and classrooms with local employers to positively impact future workforce and post-secondary decisions. Started by Southeast Service Cooperative through the 2019 Rural Career and Technical Education Consortium Grant, FutureForward is now free for all students, educators, and professionals to utilize! Over the past couple of years, the collaborating service cooperatives have learned what works best for our users of FutureForward, thus allowing us to completely revamp the site and make it more intuitive and cost-effective for all. See the benefits of using FutureForward below:
For students
Connect with local business professionals and mentors in a streamlined manner to internships, job shadows, mock interviews, mentorships and more.
For educators
Connect with employers to engage in experiential career-connected learning opportunities for awareness, in-person/virtual guest speakers, and application of coursework in real world settings.
