Presentations and learning discussions will focus on three topic areas:

  • Supporting student transitions from high school to postsecondary pathways
  • Comprehensive career and college counseling and advising practices
  • Career readiness programming and workforce preparedness

Registration Details:

  • HICA is available at no cost to attendees and is a great opportunity to connect with and learn from other educators who are striving to improve career and college student outcomes.
  • Priority is given to HIDOE and UH employees and schools/campuses are encouraged to coordinate teams of no more than five people to participate.
  • A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided to all registered participants.
