For this reason, the state of Virginia has adopted thenationally accepted structure of career clusters, careerpathways, and sample career specialties or occupationsA Career Cluster is a grouping of occupations andbroad industries based on commonalities. Within eachcareer cluster there are multiple career pathways thatrepresent a common set of skills and knowledge - bothacademic and technical - necessary to pursue a full range ofcareer opportunities within that pathway, ranging fromentry level to management, including technical andprofessional career specialties. Based on the skill setstaught, all CTE courses are aligned with one or more of thecareer clusters and pathways. – Virginia Department t/files/CareerClustersPathways.pdfAgriculture, Food & Natural ResourcesFood Products and Processing Systems; Plant Systems;Animal Systems; Power, Structural and Technical Systems;Natural Resource Systems; Environmental Service Systems;Agribusiness SystemsArchitecture & ConstructionDesign/Pre-Construction; Construction;Maintenance/OperationsArts, AV Technology & CommunicationsAudio and Video Technology and Film; Printing Technology;Visual Arts; Performing Arts; Journalism and Broadcasting;TelecommunicationsBusiness, Management & AdministrationGeneral Management; Business Information Management;Human Resources Management; Operations Management;Administrative SupportEducation & TrainingAdministration and Administrative Support; ProfessionalSupport Services; Teaching/Training1 Page
