Department of Labor and the Bureau of Labor Statistics- Career Information for High Schoolers
Currently, professional school counselors in my district are using the Career Cruising program to inform our students about themselves (via an interest and skills inventory), education, financial aid and careers. This week, we met with our sophomores to discuss career areas and the 16 National Career Clusters. The U.S. Department of Labor has information on career clusters as well. The 16 National Career Clusters group commonly themed careers in the same areas or clusters. Here you will find a link to the Dept. of Labor's career cluster resources. Individuals can click on the cluster link to learn more information about possible careers.
