Education Career Action Plan (ECAP)

Junior high school is the perfect time to start thinking about the future. We have provided some tools to help you begin making important decisions that will help you succeed in school and achieve your goals after high school.

ECAP is for Everyone

The QCUSD Strategic Plan, Strategy I, states that all students will have a personal action plan. ECAP benefits students through personalized planning, which helps them reach their academic and career goals. Students learn how to set and achieve goals by developing and updating a personalized post-secondary plan while in grades six through 12. The ECAP helps students create a vision for their future, positively impacts student achievement, and provides students with an understanding of how education is relevant to achieving their career goals.

Each grade level has several online and paper/pencil activities and surveys. Students complete online activities through the AZCIS (Arizona Career Information System) website. Every student has personal log-in information, which parents and students can access from home. Below are the roadmaps by grade level.
