Careers and Employment

Career describes an individual's journey through learning, work and other aspects of life.[1] Employment is a relationship between two parties, one being the employer and the other being the employee.[2] This learning project is designed to assist learners in career selection and employment searches.

Career Selection

One approach to career selection is to recognize personal preferences for working with people vs. things, and working with ideas vs. data. The ACT organization uses these four broad categories to identify different careers and their placement on a World of Work map. ACT tests are often given to secondary school students in the United States to help them identify and select career preferences and determine college readiness.[3]
