Choosing the career pathway you want to follow is a big decision with many factors involved.

The first step in your journey to better employment is deciding on your career pathway. Many issues will likely factor into this decision. You’ll want to know if any formal education is required, what degrees, certifications, or other credentials you may need to achieve, what the job outlook is for that career pathway, what the average salary for that position is, if there would be job opportunities in your local area for that position, and what the exact skills are you would need to learn. Thankfully, all of this information can be found through Knowledge to Work’s Career Pathways Explorer and the resources linked to on those pages. None of this information about your career options shows you, however, what your actual workday might look like in one of these positions.
The career videos featured on the occupation pages within the Career Pathways Explorer, created by CareerOneStop, are what provide you with the information to help you see if you can visualize yourself working in that career. These videos show you what your job environment may look like in that position, allow you to see others working in that field in action, and provide you with an overview of the job responsibilities required. They provide you with the information you need to see if that career would be a good fit for you. You can find these videos in the “More Information with Video” section of occupation pages.
