The goal of CITASI is to encourage educators to create career development activities in their schools, introduce career development in their lessons and expand the walls of the classroom to include worksites as outside centers of learning. Through a series of professional development activities focused on exploring careers in the arts and related industries, educators are exposed to the many careers associated with the arts allowing them to better assist students in exploring career options.
The institute includes a course of study that focuses on facilitating CDP’s career development curriculum and creating and/or enhancing a career development component with a focus on the arts in their school. All educators will receive our teaching guides and student handbooks and attend exclusive meetings with other arts and admissions professionals. Accepted participants will also attend eye-opening seminars on the economic impact of the arts and related industries in New York City. The Institute features behind-the-scenes visits to some of New York City’s top arts-related businesses.
