XELLO and EDP Planning
What is an EDP?
EDP stands for Educational Development Plan and is something that all Michigan students begin in Middle School and continue to adjust and add to each year in High School. The goal is to help students expose students to post high school opportunities early so they can plan the most beneficial course pathway in high school to prepare. Items in an EDP may include: Self-assessments for careers and colleges, Goals for high school and beyond, Activities and Awards, a 4-year plan for courses in high school, and saved careers and/or colleges of interest. HPTS has transitioned from paper copies of EDPs, to an online platform called CareerCruising and now XELLO as the housing platform for this piece.
