CAREER AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION COURSE OFFERINGS

Austin ISD Secondary School Information Guide 73

Career and Technology electives offer students an opportunity to experience work skill courses to determine if further studyis desired or to select a sequential series of courses designed to provide a strong foundation in one particular career field.Careers have been grouped by the U.S. Department of Labor into Career Clusters based on similarities in skills needed tosucceed in that career field. AISD has taken each of the career clusters and organized courses into career pathways that willprovide a strong foundation in that specific career concentration. The technical aspect of many of the work skills has alsoallowed for the awarding of college credit through the Tech-Prep program. The unique component of the Career Pathwaycourses is the availability of work-based learning opportunities. In these programs students attend classes on campus andreport to their worksite for real world application of the learned skills.
