ILP Parent Information

For Parents: What is the ILP?

Students across Kentucky are required to complete an Individual Learning Plan (ILP). The Career Cruising

ILP Tool is designed to help students bring together their academic achievements, extracurricular

experiences, and career and education exploration activities. This enables the student, parents or

guardians, teachers, and counselors to work together to develop a course of study that meets the

student’s needs and goals.

 

THE STUDENT ILP TOOL ALLOWS STUDENTS TO:

• Record their career, education, and life goals
• Bookmark careers and schools that interest them
• Record their thoughts about the careers and schools that they have saved
• Explore the Kentucky Career Clusters and track the clusters that interest them
• Store their results from standardized tests and assessments, including Career Matchmaker
• Keep track of their career and educational exploration activities
• Record their extracurricular activities, hobbies, and interests
• Document their community services and work experience
• Develop their four-year high school course of study plan
• List awards and recognitions they have received
• Document learning services and programs they have participated in
• Upload related files, such as essays, scanned artwork, and letters of reference
• Create personalized, professional-looking resumes

THE PARENT/GUARDIAN ILP TOOL ALLOWS YOU TO:

• View the work your child has entered in his or her ILP
• Learn more about the careers and schools that are of interest to your child
• Record your thoughts and comments about your child’s learning plan
