My Health Career

My Health Career is a free comprehensive website providing information about careers in the health field. Its facets include:

1. Career Exploration - Use Skill Assessment programs as well as the Interest Profiler to identify and compare interests, exploring over 200 health related occupations.

2. Programs and Continuing Education - Learn about Internships, Enhancing College Level and Technical Training Programs, as well as scholarships, grants and loan programs available to students.

3. Academic Opportunity - Search our database of NYC colleges, universities and trade schools.

4. Employment - Search for positions in the health care industry.

5. Career Builder - Prepare for job placements and use our resume builder.

Mentor Connection students will be using this website to learn about the hundreds of health professions listed on the website. They will use this information to explore different modes of writing, including Personal Writing, Subject Writing, Creative Writing, Persuasive Writing and Academic Writing (Writer's INC, 2001).

These exercises will prepare them for their end of the year project which includes an essay and presentation, in front of friends and family, on a selected health topic or profession!
