*SENIOR CAREER INFORMATION*
SUGGESTIONS DURING YOUR LAST YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL.
- Enroll in a course that offers cooperative education in the Career Center. A student may earn pay ($) and/or earn credit for the experience. Some course offerings are Project Lead the Way (Engineering), Computer Repair/Networking, Health Occupations, Business, and some of the Trades Programs in the Career Center.
- If you were unable to job shadow during your sophomore and junior year, this still might be possible. Many times employers will be open to this option because it is a non-paying item. Talk with possible employers, talk with friends and family, talk with school personnel--network, network, network.
- Verify with your future post-secondary institution that your career plan is listed as one of their college majors.
- Talk with the apprenticeship programs in your career of choice. Testing dates are available at specific times. Apprenticeship programs are very specific with entrance tests and applications.
- If you are taking the ACT, complete the enrollment form in full. ACT gives you some good career information with your test results.
