Career Clusters
The U.S. Department of Education has established 16 broad Career Clusters consisting of entry-level through professional-level occupations in a broad industry area. Each cluster includes the academic and technical skills and knowledge needed for further education and careers. Clusters are a great organizational tool for educators, counselors, parents, and students in their search for career information. They show the relationship between what students learn in school with the knowledge and skills they need for success in further education/training and careers.
CTE programs have been categorized according to 16 federal career clusters. Teams of secondary teachers & post secondary faculty, administrators and business & industry representatives from around the state have identified nationally recognized standards and certifications recommended for career & technical education programs in Alaska. These standards have been crosswalked (aligned) to reading, writing, math, science, content, employability, cultural, and all aspects of industry standards.
