Teen Empowerment Bahamas/StudentKeys represents a series of short, accurate, self-scoring assessments designed to identify and enhance students' communication, learning, motivation, and career choices. It is a simple, yet profound program focusing on personal “strengths”, and then applying that information to daily communication and learning situations. The program utilizes six self-interpreting workbooks that parents, teachers, and counselors can review with a student independently.
Our target audience for these workbooks is students in high school. Students who can recognize their strengths early on will be better prepared to make life’s most critical decisions.
