Date: Thurs., March 12, 2026 at 1PM CST/ 2PM EST Speaker: Ann Pollert, Career Coach, North Dakota’s Region III Mobile Career Exploration Classroom Who Should Attend: Educators, Counselors, Recruiters, Chamber/EDC professionals, etc. - All are welcome! Originally presented during ACTE's CareerTech Vision 2025
In this session, attendees will explore how virtual reality is revolutionizing career exploration, particularly for underserved rural and tribal schools, increasing career awareness for in-demand occupations. Learn how a mobile classroom equipped with VR headsets is bringing jobsite experiences directly to schools that lack access to traditional field trips and job shadows. Attendees will learn
from a real career coach how to effectively incorporate new technology with existing systems to improve career literacy outcomes for students. Attendees will walk away with actionable strategies and resources to bring this innovative approach to their own schools, making career exploration accessible and impactful for every student.
All are welcome, simply register yourself or anyone on your team who would like to attend or receive a recording of this session.
