Career Pathways Start by taking a self-assessment to receive a career pathway recommendation specifically for you. Here are just a few examples of the skills you can learn:
|
Occupation Each pathway contains a few occupations selected based on your knowledge. When you select the best occupation for you, it provides you the information you need to proceed in that occupation, such as average pay, career outlook (if it's bright/growing or declining), and the typical training it needs. For example, if you choose healthcare from the industry pathway options you were given, you can choose an occupation from the list like: EMT, home health aide, medical assistant, registered nurse or social worker. Once you choose your occupation, you can re-rate your skills and create your own learning plan with the recommended courses. |
