At Pathfinder, we understand that education reaches well beyond the classroom. Our tools and services help you connect students with resources that foster learning, skill development, and preparation for the future. Educators play a key role in linking students to opportunities that help them thrive. That’s why we created the Pathfinder Educator’s Guide.
Our Educator’s Guide is a practical resource that makes it easier to incorporate community programs and services into your work with students.
Inside the guide, you’ll find:
- Step-by-step tips for using Pathfinder’s online directory with your students.
- Project ideas that turn resource searches into hands-on learning activities.
- Examples of IEP goal connections using real community programs and events.
- Suggestions for transition planning—including job training, post-secondary education, and independent living opportunities.
Whether you’re planning lessons, guiding career exploration, or helping students take their next steps, the Educator’s Guide gives you ready-to-use ideas and strategies. Download it here: Pathfinder Educator’s Guide (PDF).
With the right tools in hand, you can make each learning moment count by building pathways to opportunity for every student you serve. That’s what emPOWered education is all about.
