Attending college or other postsecondary education can be a challenge for any person. However, children in care face unique educational challenges as a result of the complex trauma they have experienced and a lack of resources and support. This course explores how resource parents can help youth in grades 6 to 10 overcome obstacles, prepare for postsecondary education, and achieve their educational and career goals.

At the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • understand the unique educational challenges youth in foster care face
  • understand how to help youth plan for postsecondary education
  • understand the difference between fixed mindset and growth mindset
  • describe the five stages of changing a behavior
  • identify a variety of educational pathways, including 4-year universities, 2-year community colleges, and vocational training programs
  • know the education planning milestones for middle schoolers, 9th graders, and 10th graders


This was one of the most informative training. I enjoyed the information and would recommend all Resources Parent to take to further their knowledge about Postsecondary education for all students in high school learning.
