ACT and Encourage have partnered to make future planning easier—for students and educators.
How Does Encourage Work with ACT?
Encourage is a free college and career planning program that helps students confidently explore their options and gives educators the tools to guide every step of the journey.
Get ACT Scores into the Journey
In Encourage, students can link their ACT scores to bring their results and future planning together.
From Interests To Careers
Encourage uses a portion of ACT’s Interest Inventory to match students with potential careers and majors based on what they enjoy. It’s a personalized, engaging way to kick-start meaningful career exploration.
Resources for Educators
In addition to the student app, Encourage provides educators with valuable resources. Educators can request an account to access:
Research-backed lesson plans that integrate future-focused thinking with today
Straightforward reports that help improve conversations with students
Dashboards that can demonstrate the impact of your efforts
