As 1960s, career collect resources have been used as career examination and planning tools in schools, learning communities, and organizations across the nation. Career Clusters is a system that matches instructive and career planning.

Discover Career Clusters and Related Careers

After pinpointing the highest career clusters, teens, college students, and adults explore the different careers and create education plans. Career cluster tools used in career and educational planning include:

(1)  Pathways

(2)  High school plan of study

(3) Interest and Skills Areas

(4)  Crosswalks

(5)  LISA: A comprehensive career cluster database

(6)  Models

(7)  Brochures

After completing a career cluster assessment, teens, college students, and adults look at web sites, career models, brochures, pathways, and high school plans. One of the most unique comprehensive career cluster resources is the Louisiana Integrated Skills Assessment (LISA), an Internet program. LISA lets you explore career clusters, careers, abilities, training requirements, and more. There are 3 steps in the LISA program

Identifying Career Cluster Interest Areas

Career clusters are groups of similar occupations and industries. When teachers, counselors, and parents work with teens, college students, and adults, the first step is to complete career cluster assessment. The assessment identifies the highest career cluster areas. Career assessments show teens, college students, and adults rankings from one of the following 16 Interests Areas or Clusters:

(1). Agriculture, Food, & Natural Resources

(2). Architecture & Construction

(3). Finance

(4). Government & Public Administration

(5). Health Science

(6). Hospitality & Tourism

(7). Human Services

(8). Arts, A/V Technology & Communication

(9). Business, Management & Administration

(10). Education & Training

(11). Information Technology

(12). Law, Public Safety & Security

(13). Manufacturing

(14). Marketing, Sales & Service

(15). Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics

(16). Transportation, Distribution & Logistics

You see a wealth of information:

(1). Abilities

(2).Knowledge

(3).Skills

(4).Tasks

(5).Work Values

(6).Labor Market Information

(7).Job descriptions

(8).Educational and training requirements

(9).Crosswalks, for example ONET, DOT, GOE, and other codes

Even though LISA is an awesome program, in classroom or workshop settings, you need printed materials. When using printed materials, the career model is the best place to start. Models provide excellent overviews listing the cluster meaning sample careers, pathways, information, and skills. Visual models show career clusters, the cluster subgroups, and connected careers. Models are an excellent way to introduce career clusters

For presentations, workshops, and group discussions, the career cluster brochures provide additional information. Adults and adolescence read about the different careers that are available in each vocation cluster. Teachers, counselors, in addition to parents use the brochures to solidify adults’ and teens’ potential career or educational decisions. The brochures cover topics such as:

(1).Definition of career clusters

(2).Careers

(3).Career pathways

(4).Employment outlooks

(5).Skills

(6).Credentials

Teachers, counselors, and parents use career pathways for more detailed information. The career pathways are subgroups or areas of concentration within career clusters. Each pathway contains career groups. The career groups have similar academic skills, technical skills, educational requirements, and training requirements. Career pathways are plans of study that outline required secondary courses, post secondary courses, and related careers. The career pathways are essential tools that teachers, counselors, parents, and other adults use to give educational planning advice.

Several web sites feature High School Plans of Study. These study plans show required, elective, and suggested courses for each grade level. The school plans also match the career clusters to related careers, career pathways, and post-secondary options. Teachers, counselors, and parents find that these school plans are guides for selecting the right high school courses to match potential careers. Beyond high school, the Utah System for Higher Education has created a College Major Guide. Parents, teachers, and counselors can use the guide to match college majors to Certificate and Degree Programs.

 

 

You are facing dilemma like many other graduates who can’t decide where to specialize in. Look first make it clear what you are interested in - “Computers” or “Administration” If your focus is only good salary rather than your passions then do the following -

(1). on basis of your BCA degree get a job in some software firm for 1 year. Don’t expect more than Rs.3000-Rs.4000.

(2). simultaneously prepare for CAT. Get a good percentile and go for IIM’s or at ISB Hyderabad. The 1 year job experience shall give you an advantage while securing admission at MBA schools and shall give you an head advantage at job placements.MCA won’t fetch you a good salary at all even if you are a gold medalist there. You are doing the BCA, and the courses you should take or opt to take have already been presented to you by your college. You are perhaps asking what you should do beyond completing the BCA program.

You must remember that education is a means to an end, not an end unto itself. You must think of what you want to be and what you want to do beyond education. And then, education becomes an instrument of your success. It is worthwhile for you to take the time to think through your ambitions and interests, and then establish goals for yourself. In terms of further education, you can obviously pursue an MCA or MBA degree.

If you follow the above judiciously let me guarantee you are bound to earn LACS in a month.
