College and Career Readiness
MajorClarity is a career exposure and academic planning platform primarily used for grades 6-12, meant to promote active student engagement and exploration. The program allows students to easily try out virtual career simulations through one-of-a-kind activity and video content. We then align students to customizable academic plans of study based on their career interests (set up by the school) that keep them on track throughout secondary and post-secondary education. For students, the platform also assists with building out resumes, cover letters, and assists with college and scholarship search queries.
The platform hosts a suite of useful tools for administrators such as data reporting and analytics, targeted student group messaging, parent outreach functionalities, and transcript servicing (among others!) Please visit platform.majorclarity.com.
