About the Curriculum
Ready to Launch

To lead successful lives, young adults need a range of essential skills, such as how to use a credit card or handle conflict with a roommate.

Amid the abundance of information on the internet, there is a major gap in the skill sets of today’s teens. High school students lack the practical life skills to thrive in the 21st century.

LaunchSkills is a free curriculum we are developing to fill the gap.
