The Office of the Professions recently launched the Paths to the Professions website, aimed at highlighting careers in the licensed professions. The new website is a comprehensive tool that offers students, parents and educators an opportunity to learn more about obtaining a professional license.
In addition, students can find careers that match their interests using the "My Next Move" tool. Building on the O*NET® Interest Profiler from the U.S. Department of Labor, My Next Move suggests specific licensed professions that best fit a student's personality profile.
In addition to licensed professions, the website provides access to a selection of career development programs that offer mentoring, scholarships, experiential learning, and curricular materials.
