Careers!!

Students: If you are working on an assignment that requires you to research a career, especially one related to your field of study here at the college, we have some resources we'd like to recommend:

The Occupational Outlook Handbook (OOH for short, both in paper & online here) is a great source for information on just about any career you can think of. Articles on career fields contain invaluable info such as salary expectations, necessary training, and job prospects (IE, how likely you are to get a job in that field).

The Encyclopedia of Careers & Vocational Guidance is much like the OOH but contains articles that are more extensive.

Two websites I can suggest are:

The Riley Guide - a great source that helps you plan your job search properly.

America’s Job Bank - This site will direct you to a state-by-state search.

Use these sites to find information about salary rates and education expectations of employers.
