At the Bessie Moore Center, we believe career readiness is essential for helping students connect classroom learning to real-world opportunities. To support this goal, we’ve curated a collection of engaging, activity-based resources that explore various career pathways, workplace skills and economic decision-making.
These resources specifically highlight industries vital to Arkansas’s economy, with a strong focus on supply chain management and transportation. From understanding how goods move from production to consumer, to exploring the many careers that support these systems, students gain valuable insights into the flow of commerce and the roles they might one day play in it. These lessons bring relevance and depth to career education, helping students see the bigger picture of how economies function and where they fit in.
