Career Program Pathways

Thinking of your future? Lots of choices exist!
When students think of their career path, they need to be aware of the range of post-secondary opportunities
available. A career program pathway outlines the educational and learning opportunities taken in high school
to pursue a particular destination. A successful pathway balances both a student’s personal goals and
interests. There are four main destinations in a career pathway, each have equal value in planning for success:
Apprenticeship, College, University, and Workplace. The chart below outlines the interests across four main
occupational areas and four destination pathways.
