CTR3310: Career Directions - Transitions (2015)
Career Directions
Join us for Canada’s Most Informed School and Students Competition, participate every fall and spring.
An opportunity for students and schools to win prizes while becoming more informed about career and post-secondary options after high school!
Students will answer a 10-question quiz each day to earn points towards their personal leaderboards and the school-wide totals. These quizzes allow them to research and explore thousands of higher education and career options that they may not have been exposed to any other way. The schools with the highest ranking at the end of the competition will win a cash prize, and the students who hit the correct question threshold/quota in the time period will also win personal cash bursaries!
Competition Dates
Fall: Oct. 30 - Dec. 8, 2023
Spring: Apr. 15 – May 24, 2024
The ChatterHigh platform offers students the opportunity to discover existing and emergent careers, and make connections between school, post-secondary, and the world of work. Let’s Talk Science, Skills Canada, Engineers Canada, and ChatterHigh have teamed up to offer an exciting opportunity to engage students in career discovery.
