Building Futures infuses career education into a teacher's academic curriculum with easy-to-use lesson plans and informative resources for each grade level.

Manuals are divided into six core subject areas: Language Arts, Math, Social Studies, Science, Health & Physical Education, and Art & Music. Subjects are approached through the concept of multiple intelligences, and the manual provides activities to recognize and develop student competency for each.

The High School Math Book teaches teens the importance of Math skills in their future careers. Activities used to illustrate this message are – Business Center, Start Up, Savings Account, Balance Sheet, Balance Budget, Interview Attire, Time Management, Clothes Line, Community Center, Entrepreneur, Ad Space, Data Analysis, Buying on Credit, Careers and Math, Marketing Research, Stockbrokers and Electronic Career Portfolio.

In addition to creative lesson plans, each spiral-bound manual contains a chart of 125 occupations, organized into 25 career clusters with descriptions of tasks, skills required, and salary ranges. There is also a calendar with career-related events, and numerous website addresses for teachers and students to explore.
