What is Xello?
Xello is an engaging college and career readiness software that unlocks every student’s potential by opening their eyes to future possibilities and equipping them with skills and resources for the future. Xello enables school communities to efficiently support every student, meet college and career readiness requirements, and to teach future-ready skills and knowledge.
It is important for students to take ownership in planning for their future, but the caring adults in
their life can also play an essential supporting role. Parents and guardians can access the Xello
Family account to see their child’s work and activity results.
Xello can help students of all backgrounds, abilities, and aspirations become future ready. Xello
puts students at the heart of their journey of self-discovery and every student builds the skills
and knowledge for success in their own unique future.
Key functions:
- Build Self-Knowledge: Students complete interactive career, personality, and learning style assessments to help them better understand their unique interests, skills, and strengths. Each engaging assessment encourages reflection, helping students connect who they are with relevant career options.
- Explore Options: Students explore hundreds of career and college options that align with their assessment results. Engaging content, rich photography, and real-world interviews provide an authentic glimpse into their future and the critical knowledge to make informed decisions and plans.
- Create a Plan: Every student has a different idea of what their future will look like. Students translate their newfound knowledge into an actionable roadmap by piecing together their saved career and academic options to create a personalized plan for their future.
- Learn and Reassess: As students gain experience, knowledge, and skills, they reassess and change their plans. In the event that a students’ interests change, or a Xello inventory or assessment gives a potential career match that a student is not interested in, students can click on the career, find out why it is a match, and refine their responses. Every time a student completes a new or updated inventory or assessment, the data is used to regenerate more specific and accurate career fields that may be a strong match for the student.
