CAREER CLUSTERS & PROGRAM AREAS

2 months ago

A Career Cluster is a grouping of occupations and broad industries based on commonalities. Within each career cluster, there are multiple career pathways that represent a common set of skills and knowledge, both academic and technical, necessary to pursue a full range of career opportunities within that pathway – ranging from entry-level to management, including technical and professional career specialties. Based on the skills sets taught, all CTE courses are aligned with one or more career clusters and career pathways.  Career Clusters help students investigate careers and design their courses of study to advance their career goals.  Being familiar with career clusters may help a student begin to narrow down their career path as well as to think about which programs at Triplett may help them reach their ultimate goals.  

 

At Triplett Tech, we offer programs in the following Career Clusters:

  • Architecture and Construction

  • Health Science

  • Hospitality and Tourism

  • Human Services

  • Information Technology

  • Law, Public Safety, Corrections and Security

  • Transportation, Distribution and Logistics

 The remainder of the Reference Guide is organized according to career cluster providing an overview of the career cluster as well as specific details about each program within the cluster.

INDUSTRY-RECOGNIZED CREDENTIALS

Students in the Commonwealth of Virginia earning a standard diploma are required to earn a credential.  An education and work-related credential can be defined as a verification of an individual’s qualification or competence issued by a third party with the relevant authority to issue such credential determined by approval from the Virginia Department of Education (U.S. Department of Labor, 2010).  The term credential encompasses educational certificates, degrees, certifications, and government-issued licenses.   At Triplett Tech, all students completing a program will have an opportunity to earn an industry credential. Students may earn additional credentials that are not recognized by the Virginia Department of Education, but the credential is a value add in the workforce
