National Perspective
System Philosophy for Career Clusters: Career-focused educational reform Career Development + Instruction +
Delivery= Seamless Education Framework in which occupationally-specific
programs are one component Connects career development and
guidance to delivery systems Vertical and horizontal transfer of
knowledge/skills
![Page 12: USING CAREER CLUSTERS IN CAREER DEVELOPMENT Presented by Belinda McCharen, Ed.D., LPC, NCC, NCCC Tuttle Endowed Chair for Occupational Studies College](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061306/551494b6550346b2598b54cc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
National Perspective
Career Clusters require a shift in thinking from ONLY specific occupational education and skills training to a seamless system
Career Clusters require CTE “programs” to quit thinking as stand-alone and begin thinking as part of a seamless system
Career Clusters require long-term commitment of every partner in its role within the system
Career Clusters support workforce preparation and economic development

Let’s Say It Again……
A Plan of Study is the framework to get students from high school entry to success in careers and postsecondary education
It’s not hard, but someone has to take the lead and dedicate the time
You are the leaders to implement

What’s Most Important?
NOT – What you call courses NOT – How many courses you
take It’s being sure students get the
content and the career development they need in a format they can understand
