学生 explore and investigate Michigan’s 17 职业生涯 Clusters to discover which pathway and careers best align with their interests. Through embedded classroom lessons and activities, students start to develop an Educational Development Plan (EDP) and a Talent Portfolio. 职业生涯 information and postsecondary education data are included within the planning process. During 职业生涯 Exploration, course selections, investigation of multiple pathways, and refining of the EDP occurs.

The modules above create scaffolded learning opportunities that support academic rigor, knowledge and skill development, social emotional learning, and career exploration. 职业生涯 Exploration activities are an integrated collection of assessments, 技能, and experiences intended to define students’ areas of interest and are aligned with core academic, 技术, and employability skills. The content in the following modules meet MCDM learning targets and suggested strategies and can be utilized to assist schools in developing a local career development model.
