How the Helpanswers Career Preparation Learning System is Used:

The system is typically implemented with an individual student or group of students in a technology lab with the guidance and support of a teacher or technology assistant. It is customary that following a discussion with the teacher regarding the student's career interests, the student is assigned to one of the ten Helpanswers Career Preparation Learning System Tracks.

The student(s) are then provided with an access number and instructed on how to log onto and use the system. Throughout the students' use of the system, the teacher/technology assistant monitors their progress and provides the necessary support to ensure that the student is fully benefiting from the experience. Each learning unit is self paced and thus, the amount of time needed to complete the specific career learning tracks will vary student to student.

In addition to the self paced courses, students also have access to the Helpanswers.com® online "Knowledge Base" and "Knowledge Editor" system that will provide immediate answers to technical questions relating to any application they might have questions about.
