Resources for Parents
We also share insights, research, and perspectives to help parents better understand how young people make decisions about their future.
80% of Hong Kong secondary students are unsure about their career path and uncertain about what to pursue in the future, according to a 2024 study. This highlights the importance of helping young minds explore career possibilities, so they can gain confidence, direction, and purpose.
69% of US high school students wished their schools offered more career-focused programs before graduation, according to a 2021 study. Less than 30% said they had access to such programs. This indicates that students want to explore future pathways — if only they have the opportunity to do so.
The next generation's search for purpose
Gen Z is the first generation to value purpose over money and 75% believe that work should have a greater meaning than just making a living, according to a 2020 report. Each person’s journey is unique, but exploring future possibilities is the first step to developing their own purpose.
Find the Right Starting Point
Every child grows differently. Some need exposure. Some need confidence. Some simply need the right environment to discover what excites them.
At OWN Academy, we create experiences that help young people explore new industries, challenge themselves, build meaningful connections, and better understand who they are becoming.
Whether your child is just beginning to explore their interests or already has a clear passion, we hope this community becomes a place where families can discover opportunities, perspectives, and experiences that support their growth.
