Full-Time Career Programs -
The Concept of Career Clusters…
How It Works |
|
|
|
Career Clusters identify the knowledge and skills learners need as they follow a pathway toward their career goals. The knowledge and skills identified form a strong basis for learner success whether the learners are in high school, college, technical training or in the workplace.
Career Clusters are divided into sub-groups called pathways before becoming careeer specialities. Pathways are grouped by the knowledge and skills required of occupations in these career fields. Each pathway provides instruction as a basis for success in an array of careers and educational pursuits.
We offer daytime instruction for adult students as well as
high school juniors and seniors. For working adults, many
of our more popular programs conduct classes in the evenings.
Full-time students can expect to obtain a certificate of completion
in one to two years depending on the complexity of the career major.
Ask an enrollment counselor for information about how you
may qualify for college credit for completing some of our
training.
We encourage you to review the general description of the
career training programs we offer; evaluate the courses included in
them; then give us a call at 405.377.3333 to discuss your
career future.
