The DeBruce Foundation

Wrapped up Day 2 of Certified Agilities Coach training with The DeBruce Foundation and my brain is full in the best way! Today was all about learning how to apply the Agilities using them to help people strengthen their resumes, prepare for interviews, and talk about their skills with confidence and clarity. This is such a powerful tool for students, job seekers, and even seasoned professionals who just need help putting their strengths into words. One of the best parts of this training has been connecting with other professionals who are just as passionate about helping others grow. The conversations, collaboration, and shared energy have been inspiring! Can’t wait to take everything I’ve learned and start putting it into action! #AgilitiesCoach #DeBruceFoundation #CareerDevelopment #Collaboration #HelpingOthersShine #LifelongLearning

Jumping into Day 1 of Certified Agilities Coach training with The DeBruce Foundation! Excited to dive deeper into the Agilities and how we can help others uncover their strengths, passions, and pathways. This work aligns so much with what I care about...creating opportunities, building confidence, and helping others realize what’s possible for their future! Let’s do this! #AgilitiesCoach #CareerPathways #LifelongLearning #DeBruceFoundation

Meet our friend, Developing Others! ? Developing Others is one of the #Agilities?. This Agility helps you mentor, coach, teach, and encourage others. Developing Others can be as simple as helping a teammate learn a new skill or showing a grandparent how to use their phone. Our new animated Agilities characters teach children about the important skills they are learning and practicing every day. Even as young as elementary school, students are building skills that will empower their future careers! ? To learn more about Developing Others, meet the rest of the Agilities, and explore free career resources for students of all ages, visit Agilities.org/K-12 ? #ExpandingPathways #CareerLiteracy #CareerReadiness

Look!! Aren’t they cute!!!! As an Agilities Coach, I love working with adults and students on career planning and pathways. Now we have a fun new way to engage our elementary scholars!!! The more exposure our children can get at an earlier age, the better equipped they will be to tackle this world when they are older!!

Meet the Agilities?! As part of our new K-12 Career Literacy resources, we'd like to introduce you to the #Agilities in a fun new way for elementary students. Learning about the Agilities helps students gain awareness of the skills they use in the classroom, at home, and in their community. This understanding builds confidence in their abilities and sets the foundation for future success!? Stay tuned for introductions to each of the Agilities, and learn more at Agilities.org/K-12 #ExpandingPathways #CareerLiteracy #EmploymentEmpowerment
