Exploring CareersChapter 3:
Researching CareersChapter Summaries in EnglishIn Chapter 3, you began to explore career clusters. You read about career clusters
(groups of related careers) and career interest areas (general kinds of activities people do
in many careers), which help you begin the process of looking at careers with respect to
your skills and interests.
You also read about different ways to research careers and different questions to
ask when researching careers. You were introduced to the print and online resources
available from the U.S. Department of Labor, as well as other resources and sources of
information. You also learned about experiential ways to research careers, such as
working as an intern, participating in a cooperative (co-op) program, shadowing someone
on the job, volunteering, and service learning. |
