Bridging Education and Careers: DeBruce Foundation’s Vision for the Future
In this episode of TransformED with StepUp, we sit down with Rebecca Kessler, Education and Integration Specialist at The DeBruce Foundation, an organization devoted to reshaping career readiness and workforce development.
We delve into The DeBruce Foundation’s transformative Agilities framework—a set of 10 fundamental workforce skills designed to empower individuals on any career path. Rebecca highlights resources like the Agile Work Profiler and explains how educators can integrate these tools into real-world learning to prepare students for the future.
For new teachers, Rebecca offers a powerful piece of advice: discover your own Agilities first and then explore creative ways to weave them into your teaching, no matter the subject.
Tune in to hear how Rebecca and The DeBruce Foundation are unlocking potential and paving the way for a brighter future in workforce education!
