Career assessments and Career Guide for every high school student. From $199/mo for 200 assessments a month. ESSA and Perkins V aligned.

The four-year arc breaks into three career-readiness layers. Grade 9-10 (career exploration): RIASEC for interest discovery, Multiple Intelligences for strengths exploration, Skills Audit baseline. Grade 10-11 (pathway commitment): Big Five (OCEAN) for trait depth, AI Career Match for specific career options, Skills Audit re-run to track development. Grade 11-12 (post-secondary readiness): EQ for workforce readiness, Career Guide refinement, college-major-by-career-fit conversations. Counsellors typically run the core battery at grade 9 entry and refresh annually, with the Career Guide maturing across the four years.

Yes. JobCannon provides student-level Career Guide records (career match, skill gap, recommended pathways) that schools use as evidence for ESSA Title IV career-readiness indicators where state plans include them. Aggregate exports are formatted for state CCR (College-and-Career-Ready) indicator reporting. The platform does not replace your state SIS — we feed assessment and Career Guide data into it. JobCannon is built to sit underneath as the assessment-and-evidence layer, with the SIS holding the canonical CCR indicator record.

For schools running CTE (Career and Technical Education) pathways under Perkins V funding, JobCannon supports two specific use cases. (1) Programme-of-Study selection: students run RIASEC, Skills Audit, and Career Match before committing to a Programme of Study, providing evidence the selection was informed and aligned. (2) Programme-Quality reporting: aggregate Career Guide outcomes feed into Perkins V Quality Indicator data, particularly Indicator 5S2 (Career and Technical Education Programme Quality) where applicable. Districts running multi-school CTE programmes can use the cross-school dashboard for programme comparison.

Students are never billed personally. Educational deployments are priced flat per school rather than per student, and invited assessments draw on your plan’s monthly allowance. The school administrator dashboard with cohort analytics is on a paid tier (typically $199/mo flat or under district licensing for districts above 50 schools). Many high schools fund the dashboard through Perkins V grants, ESSA Title IV career-readiness funds, or state-level career-readiness budgets. We can provide a quote letter formatted for school procurement.

It is built to slot into existing programming rather than to need a separate "JobCannon class." The placements counsellors use most often are 9th-grade homeroom or advisory period for the initial battery, careers fair or 11th-grade options-evening preparation for Career Guide conversations, and 12th-grade post-secondary planning for the final pathway-commitment refresh. Schools running a dedicated career-readiness curriculum can use JobCannon as the spine. Be clear about what does not come with it: there is no counsellor playbook, no session plans and no parent-communication templates for grades 9-12. The six lesson plans we publish cover grades 6-8 only, and describing a high-school set we have not written would be inventing a deliverable. What you get instead is a planning call with your programme lead.

JobCannon is FERPA-aligned for school official use. For students under 13 (occasional grade 9 cases), COPPA-compliant parental consent flow is available. For schools with international or transfer students from EU jurisdictions, GDPR compliance applies. All data is stored on US Supabase infrastructure with role-based access. Schools sign a Data Processing Agreement covering exactly which student-data fields are collected (assessment answers, Career Guide outcomes, no demographic or PII unless the school chooses to add them). Counsellor access is role-based; students can mark assessment answers as counsellor-private under participant-controlled consent default. See /b2b/guides/ferpa-student-data-career-platform for the full FERPA workflow.

For US students between 13 and 18, parental notification (not consent) is the standard FERPA pattern — schools include JobCannon in their annual directory-information notice, and parents may opt out for their child. For students under 13 (rare in grade 9), COPPA verifiable parental consent applies and the platform exposes a built-in consent flow that schools either pre-collect once per cohort with signed forms or run per student in-platform. For international students from EU/UK jurisdictions, GDPR applies and the school records lawful basis (typically public-task or legitimate-interests under educational purpose) in its data-protection register. The notification wording itself stays yours — we do not supply a template for it.

Schools running a structured CCR curriculum use JobCannon as the assessment spine across the four-year arc rather than as a standalone unit. Common placements: 9th-grade homeroom or advisory period for the initial RIASEC + Multiple Intelligences battery, 10th-grade ELA cross-curricular for Skills Audit reflection writing, 11th-grade options-evening preparation for Career Match conversations, 12th-grade post-secondary planning for the EQ + Career Guide refinement. Schools without a dedicated CCR curriculum should know that those placements are a recommendation, not a set of session plans we hand over: our written plans cover grades 6-8 only. The platform satisfies state CCR indicator assessment requirements where state plans include them.

Yes. The assessment flow is designed to be IDEA-friendly: extended-time accommodation is built in (no time pressure, pause-resume across sessions), questions are at concrete-behaviour reading level rather than abstract self-concepts (which helps students with reading-comprehension or executive-function differences), and the Career Guide output uses plain-language descriptions appropriate for IEP transition planning. For students with IEP transition goals (mandatory from age 16 under IDEA), the Career Guide functions as transition-assessment evidence and supports Indicator 14 post-secondary outcomes data collection. Counsellors can flag assessments as IEP-aligned in the dashboard for transition-team review.
