Career Pathways Tool
DEED's Career Pathways tool connects occupational data from DEED's Labor Market Information office with educational programming displaying career fields, clusters, and pathways. The primary goal of this dashboard is to help students understand how their educational path matches employment opportunities, and to inform education curriculum, initiatives, and programming to labor market realities. The tool is designed to help start career exploration with students, parents, and counselors.
MCIS STUDENT SURVEY
DEED has developed a student survey (also available through the MCIS tool) that is designed to gather valuable, actionable insights about high school students’ futures.
If you are a current high school student, we want to know:
- What careers you're interested in.
- Where you'd like to live and work after graduation.
- What career planning resources and support you are currently using and need to get there.
For teachers and students who would like guidance using the Career Pathways tool, DEED has also developed a Career Pathways Worksheet to help users walk through how to use and interpret the tool.
Students and jobseekers can also find more information about Career Exploration through our Pathways to Career Success webpage. The "Resources" tab at the top also provides contact information for DEED's Regional Analysis and Outreach Unit.
