career clusters
Career Clusters are groupings of occupations used as an organizing tool for course selection.
The career clusters are designed to help students find courses that are aligned to student interests
and possible career choices. Instruction in a career cluster prepares learners for a full range of career
opportunities within the career cluster, focusing on critical knowledge and skills that are transferable as
new opportunities arise and the industry changes. Nationally, 16 career clusters are recognized with 79
career pathways that are sub-groupings of occupations. This collection of career clusters and pathways
present a way to categorize thousands of occupations currently available. Programs of study represent a
sequence of instruction that prepares students for post-secondary goals and interests. Every student will
create a program of study/4-year plan with his/her counselor.
The Career Clusters framework is an approach used by schools to orient career exploration and career
guidance, select curriculum offering, show relevance of academic courses, and engage community civic
and business leaders in partnerships. Career Clusters are valuable in supporting effective transitions
between secondary and postsecondary education by impacting the design of programs of study offered by
a school. (www.careerctech.org)
Each Career Cluster™ represents a distinct grouping of occupations and industries based on the
knowledge and skills they require. The 16 Career Clusters™ and related Career Pathways provide an
important organizing tool for schools to develop more effective programs of study (POS) and curriculum.
