Embedded Files
During the JA Virtual Career Fair, you will choose volunteer videos from the JA Virtual Career Fair Video Library. You will be able to watch and actively listen to a variety of role models from the community who will speak about their careers and demonstrate the equipment they use. These videos, from every career path, include discussion about education, training, and academic skills the volunteers apply on the job.
The role models who have volunteered their time to create these videos understand that you are preparing for your future. They understand that one day you will apply the knowledge and skills you have learned during the JA Virtual Career Fair to your workplace and work environment.
Career Paths
Missouri has identified six Career Paths as a way to help you become aware of and explore careers
in a logical and meaningful way.
Career Clusters
Missouri uses 16 Career Clusters as a way of organizing occupations and careers to assist educators in tailoring rigorous coursework and related activities for all students. The Career Clusters include all occupations, even those not usually found in career and technical education. Career Clusters may be used beginning in grades 6, 7, 8 or 9, and can continue as a framework for educational planning through postsecondary education.
Career Pathways
Occupations within a Career Cluster are further grouped according to shared commonalities such as skill sets or common roles. This grouping is called a Career Pathway. Each cluster contains two to seven Career Pathways. Career Pathways assist educators in the development of a coordinated and non-duplicative sequence of courses that identifies both secondary and postsecondary education elements; includes challenging academic and career and technical education content; and culminates in one or more of the following: technical skill proficiency, a credential, a certificate, or a degree at the secondary or postsecondary level.
