Career Exploration

The Career Fitness Program has guided thousands of students through the critical processes of self-assessment, career exploration, and job search. Noted for its thorough coverage, The Career Fitness Program offers students practical advice and information coupled with hands-on activities, exercises, charts, and graphs.

Funded by the National Science Foundation, this program is designed with two purposes in mind. 1st, it aims to connect community college students with the skills and networks they need to achieve success in technology driven growth industries. 2nd, it hopes to help those industries grow by giving them the labor force they need. ATETV, an integral part of this innovative program, aims to visually represent the relevance of ATE to the modern workplace and prospective students. Through over 200 videos, the website tracks myriad ATE sponsored projects and student success stories from community colleges around the country. Typically 2-10 minutes in length, videos range from FAQs about the project to career opportunities in wind energy. The Collection is easily sortable by category and anyone interested in the future of technological education will delight in these well made snapshots.
