Full course description
The Tennessee Next Chapter Program is a college and career readiness initiative designed to guide students through progressive mastery levels that build essential skills for career exploration, goal-setting, financial literacy, and postsecondary planning. The program focuses on workforce development, leadership, community engagement, and life skills, ensuring participants are prepared for their next steps—whether college, technical training, or entering the workforce.
Instead of being restricted to specific grade levels, students can complete mastery levels at their own pace throughout high school, progressing as they develop key competencies. The curriculum includes interactive lessons, hands-on projects, career exploration, college readiness activities, and practical financial education to support well-rounded personal and professional growth.
