Career Pathways

Career pathways are typical paths by which an individual might reach employment in a certain occupation. While they are by no means the only way to become employed in a given occupation, they offer a general guideline. While these career pathways are organized by their primary industry, it should also be noted that career pathways and occupations can be found across multiple industries.

These career pathways have been developed around Ohio's in-demand occupations according to the "In-Demand Occupations" report. Secondary and post-secondary courses reflect career-tech programs approved by the Department of Education and the Department of Higher Education. Average tuition costs are available from the Department of Higher Education Fall 2013 Survey of Student Charges.
