Learners will be directed to meet face-to-face with career center staff for course guidance.
Learners will use navigation buttons (pictures) to link them to essential course information and resources. Here are two important navigation buttons:

	Modules: This will take you to the next module.
	Home: This will take you to this web site. From here, you may access the modules or anything else on this page.
