UtahFutures grows in 2nd year on Web


More than 400,000 people have signed up for UtahFutures.org, the state's online tool for education and career planning, since the website was created a little more than two years ago. The site has had more than 4 million hits in the past two years, according to a press release from the State Office of Education, and an estimated 274,000 high school students use the site regularly. Users can take career interest surveys, assess their skills, learn about occupations and build portfolios that they can carry throughout their careers. Information on financial aid and scholarships is also available. Deseret News
