Tanja Easson - Vice President of Operations, Curriculum, and Technical Support at Academic Innovations
The Get Focused Stay Focused Conference in Santa Barbara, California is less than a month away and it will be packed with great opportunities to hear from industry leaders.
Our featured speaker this week is Vice President of Operations, Curriculum, and Technical Support at Academic Innovations, Tanja Easson.
She exemplifies why comprehensive guidance is crucial for ALL students. Thanks to concurrent enrollment and Advanced Placement, Tanja started at the University of Utah just a few credits shy of sophomore status, but she lacked clarity about her career path or a plan.
She explored numerous majors before settling on English. And where do most English majors end up? In the software industry, of course, where she worked as a technical writer, programmer, and software support technician.
In 1996, Tanja joined Academic Innovations, where she has helped hundreds of educators around the country build and expand their Career Choices series and Get Focused Stay Focused programs.
She has also been instrumental in the development of My10yearPlan.com® and will be providing tips and strategies for making the most of your use of My10yearPlan.com® and the Get Focused...Stay Focused!® Follow-Up Modules.
