Individual Career Acadmenic Plan
ICAP
Education ALIVE has created curriculum for schools to use so students can fulfill their state mandated Individual Career Academic Plan (ICAP) as determined by the Oklahoma State Board of Education.
Why EducationALIVE?
Survey Says...
Problems
- Over 50% of students are disengaged or actively disengaged leading to classroom disruptions. Gallup
- Less than 50% of secondary students feel what they learn in class helps them outside of school. YouthTruth
- Skills Gap - Teens are not getting the experience they need, and as a result, are becoming unmarketable in today’s workforce. Middle Earth Partnering with Youth for Responsible Adulthood.
Results
- 40% of millennial workers feel that they are unfulfilled and unengaged in their current jobs. Clutch Report
- National surveys have consistently found that businesses have difficulty finding employees with the right skills. Even among college graduates. Students lack basic skills, interpersonal skills, communication skills, technology use, and thinking skills. The James C Martin Center for Academic Renewal.
Solution
- To prepare students for the future workforce, schools need to teach them skills like flexibility, creativity, tenacity, being self-driven, and collaboration. Kaufman Foundation (Included in EducationALIVE Curriculum)
- "If schools could show students how their learning applies in the real world, this would be a big boost to engagement numbers." Jen Wilka, Executive Director, YouthTruth (Foundational to EducationALIVE Curriculum)
- One way to help students relate their academic work to daily life is to connect students with projects in their local community. "If you want students to do work connected to the world outside of school, you need to create places and spaces for those intersections," (Practitioner Story) says Tim McNamara, Director of High Tech High Chula Vista (HTHCV) in San Diego, CA YouthTruth (Cornerstone of EducationALIVE Curriculum)
EducationALIVE is the link between what students know and who they will become!
Oklahoma State Department of Education
Individual Academic Career Plan
“Districts must make a shift in thinking, approaching and delivering career development in their schools in order to help students and their families become more informed consumers of the education and training required to meet their personal goals. The shift is a strategic one, toward a holistic and student-centered approach and away from the random acts of career development characteristic of the past. Strong infrastructure, relationships and student awareness are key to successful implementation of ICAP.”
Excerpt from the “Oklahoma Edge ICAP Implementation Toolkit”
- Oklahoma State Department of Education
The ICAP is required by the state!
It is not a standard for students to meet like the past, but a process for students to own.

Individual Career Academic Plan (ICAP)
"Beginning in the 2019-20 school year, every student must be put on an ICAP. The term ICAP refers to both a process that helps students engage in academic and career development activities and a product that is created and maintained for students’ academic, career and personal advancement."
When students complete a meaningful ICAP process, they:
- Connect the relevance of education to their future goals.
- Create secondary and postsecondary course plans to pursue their career and life goals.
- Strategically select a postsecondary pathway to align with self-defined career, college and life goals.
- Establish better communication and engagement between school and home.
- Understand and demonstrate career exploration and career planning.
