Forge Your Future Student Experience
at Sunnyside 

ECESC has developed six classrooms at Sunnyside Education Center, each representing one of the six RIASEC types, which will become a career exploration opportunity for students in our region.

RIASEC Framework Overview

RIASEC codes represent six personality types and link personal strengths, interests, and values to career options. RIASEC is an acronym for the six personality types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional. ECESC has developed experiences for educators and students to facilitate self-awareness and productive career exploration. Learn more about the RIASEC framework here.

Forge Your Future - The Mobile Experience

We believe engaging students in career exploration activities is critical, and geography and limited resources should not be a barrier. In response, ECESC has developed the Forge Your Future Mobile Experience. This mobile learning lab brings activities to your door, allowing students and teachers to explore on their own turf.

Forge Your Future - The Educator Experience

The Forge Your Future Educator Experience is designed to allow educators to learn about how students can engage in career-connected learning by learning more about themselves. Presenters will introduce the RIASEC framework for self-discovery and share insights into its connection to careers and future planning. Participants will walk away with an understanding of their personal RIASEC themes and ideas for incorporating these themes into student learning. The Educator Experience provides an interactive tour of ECESC’s Forge Your Future Student Experience tailored to educators.
