Oklahoma ICAP mandate
Oklahoma Individual Career Academic Plan (ICAP): Annual Renewal & Workforce Readiness
70 O.S. § 1210.508-4 requires every student in grades 9–12 to develop and annually update an Individual Career Academic Plan that documents college/career interest, postsecondary goals, course sequences, and academic progress, with two free state-funded platforms available: OK Career Guide (Kuder) and OK College Start.
In Brief
Oklahoma's Individual Career Academic Plan (ICAP) is a high-school-focused mandate (grades 9–12) that ties annual career/college surveys, postsecondary goal-setting, and course planning to graduation. Unlike most states, ICAP explicitly names annual renewal as a graduation requirement—each year, students must update their interest survey, review their workforce/postsecondary goal, and adjust their course sequence and academic-progress documentation. The law took effect for students entering 9th grade in 2019–2020 and has since become a standard graduation compliance check.
Oklahoma provides two free platforms: OK Career Guide (OSDE/CareerTech-funded via Kuder) and OK College Start (Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education). Districts can use one or both to satisfy the ICAP documentation requirement. JobCannon's RIASEC and Skills Audit provide a independent, research-backed alternative (or complement) to the state platforms, especially useful if your district wants deeper psychometric depth than Kuder alone offers.

District-tier pricing
Scale is $199/mo and covers 200 people per billing period — one person, however many assessments they take, and a class-code arrival counts the same as an emailed invite. Growth is $999/mo for 1,000. Above that, or where enrolment should not be metered at all, it is an Enterprise conversation rather than a larger self-serve plan. A district-sized enrolment runs out of the monthly tiers quickly — the Education Licence below prices your whole enrolment per student for the year, assessments uncapped, and adds the full career and skills corpus.

Education Licence — priced per student, per year
One rate per enrolled student for the academic year, sized for Oklahoma district or school-level ICAP rollouts. Assessments uncapped, career and skills corpus included — multiply your own enrolment by the band and you have the most this can cost before you talk to us.
$1.25 down to $0.80 per student, per year — assessments uncapped
That multiplication is a ceiling, not a bill. If our self-serve plans would cover the same number of students for less, you are quoted the lower figure — we do not sell an institution its own students back at a higher price than anyone can buy them for on the pricing page.

£350 per school, per year — a flat whole-school licence rather than a per-student rate, because that is the unit UK schools budget in. Same uncapped assessments and same corpus. Excludes VAT.
The ladder starts at 1,301 students. Below that a self-serve plan already covers your whole roll for less than a licence would, so that is what we will point you at — and UK schools have the flat whole-school licence above at any size. Bands are by enrolment, and the rate applies to your whole roll rather than to a seat count you have to predict. Invoiced annually against a purchase order; no per-assessment charge and nothing to top up mid-year. Assessing an institution's enrolled students is covered by the Education Licence, not by a hiring plan. What is in the corpus.

The statute requires the ICAP itself (the plan document and annual updates), but does not mandate a specific platform. OK Career Guide and OK College Start are free state-funded options available to all districts. JobCannon provides the assessment depth (RIASEC or Career Match), and your district can export those results into whichever platform you choose for formal ICAP documentation.
The law requires annual updates to the interest survey, postsecondary goal, course sequence, and academic progress—but it doesn't dictate the format. A full RIASEC (60 questions, ~15 min) is rigorous once per year; a quick Career Match (~2 min) or even a guided counselor interview can work for subsequent years if your district prefers lighter annual check-ins. The key is that students explicitly reflect and update, not that they repeat identical assessments.
The statute doesn't specify a hard completion deadline within the school year—only that the ICAP is updated annually and is a graduation requirement. Best practice is to establish an internal deadline (e.g., by October of each school year) to ensure all students in a cohort are assessed and planned before course-selection windows close. JobCannon's bulk-invite workflow helps you meet that cadence across all grades 9–12 simultaneously.
The statute requires students to 'create/update written postsecondary and workforce goals,' which implies a direction, even if it's broad (e.g., 'explore STEM fields' or 'enter a trade within 2 years'). A true 'undecided' ICAP may not satisfy state audit requirements. JobCannon's RIASEC results and career-pathway mapping help students narrow from 'no idea' to a few realistic options, making the ICAP goal more concrete and defensible.
JobCannon's COPPA-safe flow supports assessment of students ages 13+, which covers standard 9th graders. If your district has younger 9th graders (under 13), parental consent is required; JobCannon's consent workflow is COPPA-compliant for those cases. Either way, ICAP is a graduation requirement, so assessment must happen—JobCannon ensures compliance doesn't slow you down.
70 O.S. § 1210.508-4 applies only to high school students (grades 9–12); it does not extend the ICAP mandate to middle school (grades 6–8), so middle school career planning, while beneficial, is not a statutory obligation in Oklahoma.
