Streaming Futures is a free, web-based career program dedicated to helping teens choose the right career path by allowing them to watch internet-based video interviews with career professionals from all different careers.

Teenagers are constantly in search of the right career path to take in life, but with thousands of different professions available, this choice can be very difficult and overwhelming. Teens need a way to learn about different careers based on real world advice, not from prepackaged information provided by schools or books. And that is where Streaming Futures comes in!

Streaming Futures is the tool that makes it possible for teenagers to get in-depth insight into careers by watching interviews with industry leaders actually doing the job. What better way to learn about journalism than to listen to the advice of Steve Forbes of Forbes Magazine, or Bill Keller, Executive Editor of the New York Times? Who better to talk about a career in animation than Bill Schultz, former producer of the Simpsons?

Twice a month, teen host Joel Holland interviews a professional from a different career. In each interview, teens learn interesting information about the interviewees past, and receive priceless advice for the future. For example, in the interview with Nortel Networks CEO, Frank Dunn, teens learned that Dunn actually has a background in finance, and suggests that teens interested in an executive position such as his should stay motivated in math class. Teens also learned that Dunn was very involved with high school sports, and attributes his current success to this high school teamwork experience.

In addition to being a standalone resource for teenagers, Streaming Futures is also the perfect tool for teachers. Whether teaching a business, marketing, technology, law, or any other type of class, Streaming Futures interviews have something for almost every teacher and are an excellent addition to classroom curriculum. For example, while teaching a class to marketing students, why not pull up the interview with Dan Sherlock, the VP of marketing for Disney Online?
