Training Pathways

One of the primary goals of the New Vision is to increase students’ entry into high growth industry sectors through industry-focused career technical training and occupational clustering that prepares students to be agile workers with expanded career opportunities. To support that goal, Job Corps launched a major initiative designed to update national Training Achievement Records (TARs) by incorporating industry-standards and the requirements of industry-based certifications into current technical training programs. The industry matrices and training pathways have been developed to illustrate which current Job Corps career technical training programs have been revised and which industry-based certifications and standards are now incorporated into their content. The visuals also indicate how current training programs can be grouped within the high growth industry areas and the various instructional “pathways” to which they might belong. The illustrations are NOT intended as a career cluster framework for Job Corps programs. They are merely intended to serve as a way of grouping existing programs and summarizing the results of the TAR revision efforts to date. Job Corps is still in the process of finalizing its overall approach to career clusters and will be providing additional clarifications to the field as they are developed and endorsed by the National Vision Implementation Planning Team (NVIPT). In the meantime, if you want user-friendly information regarding high growth industries and projected high demand occupations from the Department of Labor, check out www.careervoyages.gov.
