Here is the KSS Career Mentorship Google Sign up form for any student having difficulty deciding/finding a Job Shadow.
Job Shadow OR Indigenous Elder Experience
Every school district #23 student will graduate with the attributes, credentials and experiences to connect their career life plan with their individual talents and passions in pursuit of a balanced, meaningful life. In order to ensure that every KSS student experiences these connections to their career life plane, it is mandatory for graduates to have completed a KSS Job Shadow and/or a Career Interview Questionnaire (or an Indigenous Elder Experience). Please ensure that you have a completed copy/photo of at least one of the following forms for your CAPSTONE Presentation. For additional information regarding KSS Career Programs, please visit our homepage at: http://www.kss.sd23.bc.ca/ProgramsServices/Career-Life%20Programs/Pages/default.aspx

Our district and school goals are to provide as many experiences as possible for our students, with particular emphasis on authentic career research.
Our district has identified that these experiences would be:
All of these Career Life Mentorship Experiences would be considered authentic career research, which meets the district and ministry goals for our graduating students. If you do have students struggling to find authentic career research opportunities, please have them continue checking our Career Mentorship Experience Google Sign-up sheet at:

Our district and school goals are to provide as many experiences as possible for our students, with particular emphasis on authentic career research.
Our district has identified that these experiences would be:
- Program Shadows – these would be related to any Dual Credit program…students would connect with Mr. Parmar regarding these opportunities.
- Job Shadows – these would be district approved experiences…students must connect with Ms. Gross regarding these opportunities.
- Virtual Job Shadows – these are new to our district in light of our current environment…students would connect with Ms. Gross.
- Indigenous Elder Experiences – these are new to our school and Mr. Sodaro will continue to work with our Indigenous Education Department on these.
- Career Spotlights – these will be offered to students in a variety of ways, including in person/zoom here at KSS or visits to UBCO/OUC, etc…
All of these Career Life Mentorship Experiences would be considered authentic career research, which meets the district and ministry goals for our graduating students.
