Step 2: Learn About an Occupation

In this step we offer some tools and links that can help you find details on a specific occupation. This includes job descriptions, educational and license requirements, wage rates and employment outlook.

Here are 3 easy ways to get occupational information:
		The School to Career Guide organizes careers into "clusters" that students or trainees can identify with.

		The Occupation Explorer lets you search for careers within more traditional occupation groupings.

		Utilize a Keyword Search to find information about the occupation you are seeking.

The Military Skills Translator lets you use your Military Occupation Classification (MOC) to identify similar occupations in the civilian workforce you may qualify for.
Apprenticeships and Military Careers offer occupations where you can earn while you learn a trade or other skills. What's Hot! What's Not! provides some measures of employment trends. Additional Occupation Information Links are also available for browsing.
