Xello/Inspire Support
As part of PI26, Wisconsin's DPI provides the Xello platform to students as they engage in academic and career planning. Xello is an online program that helps students create their very own, unique roadmap for college, career, and future success. Interactive assessments highlight career pathways aligned with their skills, interests, and unique personality.
ALL school counselors and classroom teachers have access to Xello as well. Determining how to best deliver Xello programming to students and embed relevant academic and career planning activities into each classroom curriculum is an important part of every district's academic and career planning program.
In addition, many districts have opted to turn on Inspire, a fee-based add-on to Xello. With Inspire, students can engage directly with Wisconsin employer information and resources. If you have Inspire turned on in your district, you can find additional lesson plans for use with Inspire features below. For more information on having the Inspire platform available to your district. see the Inspire Northeast Wisconsin webpage.
