Please join us for the 9th National Career Clusters Institute at the Marriott Atlanta Marquis in Atlanta, Georgia. This year's theme is Career Clusters: A World of Career Options, One Simple Framework. The Institute promises to give you more of what you are looking for – sessions and workshops organized into strands designed for specific groups, with more hands-on breakouts. These strands include:
Strand A:Career Clusters as a Model for Collaboration
Sessions in this strand will share examples (state, local and regional) where leaders in education (secondary and postsecondary), workforce development, economic development and/or business work together for shared interests and goals using Career Clusters as the unifying model/approach.
Strand B:Innovations in Implementing Career Clusters
Sessions in this strand are targeted for leaders at the state, district and local levels in secondary and postsecondary settings.
