Career Exploration

Area business and industry leaders will identify career opportunities according to Career Clusters so students can follow their assessment results to the pathways that align with their interests, values, and skills. Talk with employers about growing career opportunities, industry expectations for skills and education or training, and learn the ins and outs of potential future careers. See what businesses are representing the Career Clusters.

Education and Training 

There are many options after high school and you can explore them all in one place. Once you know your pathways and the requirements of your future career, find an education or training program that helps you earn the credentials and skills to be successful.
