Goals

The Scrubs Online Career Exploration program will give middle school and high school students the abilities and skills to start their pathway into healthcare careers of the students choosing. The Scrubs Online program has 4 learning objectives for the students:

o The student will graduate the program with an understanding of job duties, average salary, and education requirements with 10 or more healthcare careers that are highly needed within the Minnesota healthcare workforce. o The student will graduate the program with a strong understanding of professional skills needed such as writing a resume, cover letter and thank you letter. o The student will graduate the program with two or more career options that would be realistically achievable for the student; as well as an understanding of two or more higher education institutions that their chosen career(s) certificate or degree field could be received. o The student will be able to write adequate research on a chosen career field. By completing the Scrubs Online career exploration program, students will be prepared for multiple careers in healthcare, professional skills needed in a working environment, and will grow throughout the program to understand the needs of working within the healthcare field. Students who complete the program will be encouraged to attend future Scrubs Camps, the HealthForce Minnesota in-person career exploration camp program hosted across Minnesota.

Activities

Students will complete 6 asynchronous modules covering healthcare careers and professional skills, as well as completing a final research assignment that will indicate a desired career path, educational path, and career goals. The program is completed on the students own time through the dates of the program offering.
