23. “My ICAP” Survey • New Naviance survey created as a one stop shop for student’s ICAP. • It’s an “open” survey so students can add to their plan after each lesson or experience. • In the past, when people asked about the ICAP, we’d say “well, some of it’s here and some of it’s there…” • Now, Survey responses will serve as student’s electronic portfolio, documenting their ICAP.

24. What is ICAP? • DPS ICAP Scope & Sequence, including career exploration; PSWF goal, benchmarks &/or readiness rubric, & service learning goals; academic plan with PS courses; and record of PS & financial planning • “My ICAP” Portfolio, documenting ALL relevant planning experiences Hopefully, this will help increase everyone’s understanding of ICAP as both can easily be printed and explained to students, parents, faculty, and community members.
