High School and GED (Online) Alumni Portfolios and Job Boards

High schools and programs that offer high school equivalency and/or GED programs should also have online platforms that would permit students to create profiles that would include resumes and portfolios and/or enable students to link to their personal websites that would exhibit their resumes and best school projects, for the purpose of collegiate recruitment and/or employment...

A platform of the sort could enable students to upload documents in elementary, middle, and high school, though they would only publish their very best work in their actual portfolios, which would hinge upon students’ high school and/or prospective collegiate majors while each item included in a published portfolio would ultimately require review and approval by designated high school faculty...

Portfolios could consist of essays and other writings, videos (for students interested in acting or singing, etc.), drawings (for students interested in becoming artists, fashion designers, architects, etc.), photographs (for students interested in becoming models or who have created clothing that they’ve designed), et cetera, et cetera.

An initiative of this sort would give high school and GED graduates a better compass for career paths by allowing them and collegiate/employment recruiters to better see what their strengths are, for the purpose of cultivating those skills and magnifying them to prospective employers...
