Hobsons & Roadtrip Nation

Helping students build their own pathways to success

Hobsons and Roadtrip Nation have partnered to help students build their own pathways to success by combining Naviance, the world’s leading college and career readiness platform for schools and districts, with the Roadtrip Nation Interview Archive, a collection of more than 3,500 videos interviewing accomplished individuals across hundreds of industries.

Roadtrip Nation Interviews, which are conducted by students for students, are grouped by career interest categories and themes such as fear, failure, risk, and determination. This allows students to connect with the content they identify with most, and hear stories from leaders who have overcome the very same issues they are facing. Educators can then leverage the tools within Naviance to help students map out their own paths to success.
