Career Awareness
Welcome to the First Stage of
the Career Development Cycle
Career Awareness
Utilizing resources from Ohio Means Jobs Career Connections, students develop greater awareness of high demand industries and occupations throughout Unit 1. Students will define and compare what a job is compared to what a career is; and establish what this means for them both short and long-term. They will also build their knowledge of the education and training needed to be successful in these jobs and become more self-aware of their own attitudes towards future career success.
How will you PREPARE? Here we go!
