Leadership Development. The Achievement Academy offers a rich menu of leadership development experiences for students at all academic levels, including: Career skills development and work-based learning experiences: Twice monthly, Starting Points and HSE students will participate in work readiness activities provided in collaboration with our Made In Durham partners and the Human Resource Development (HRD) department at Durham Technical Community College. This program focuses on employability (soft) skills development and career exploration activities. Off-site workshops at Durham Tech and worksite visits will be tied to in-house academic activities that can be completed with a tutor’s assistance, in the HSE classroom, or in the learning lab. These activities prepare participants for internships and other work-based learning experiences that are supported through our Made in Durham partnership. Student-staff planning conferences: Informed decision making, self-advocacy, reflection, and planning skills are essential for youth to develop their potential for leadership. Once a month, AAD students participate in a structured planning conference with an individual staff member. The conference culminates in a mutually designed contract that articulates the student’s long range educational and career goal, sets realistic short term objectives for the upcoming term, plans to address any obstacles to success, provides an opportunity for students to make explicit personal commitments to best meet their objectives, request specific commitments from the Achievement Academy staff, and share any concerns about the learning or social environment at AAD. For new Achievement Academy students, staff facilitates these conferences, but that responsibility is transferred to students in time. The Achievement Academy planning conference process is similar to a workplace performance review and prepares students to participate in and lead a meeting, to advocate for needed assistance and changes in their learning/work environment, and to be responsible partners in their own education. Post-secondary bridge programming: HSE students who have completed two of their four HSE subject area exams begin working with our Made In Durham Post- secondary Resource Specialist. Students develop a post-secondary education-to- career plan, work intensively with the resource specialist to select then complete all application requirements for the programs of their choice. The resource specialist is then available to ...
