Career Decisions is designed to help students cope with change while they plan their futures.  Students learn about new, emerging occupations and careers for the 21st century, the meaning of work, and how to use the career search tools necessary for success. They also learn about success, personal economics and money management, and values, beliefs, and ethical behaviors.  The course is planned to prepare students to investigate the question of what to make of their lives.  Students will leave the program with a personal resume. Career Decisions is taught by the Lifeskills Department at South and the Business Education Department at North. The course may be used to meet the 210 credit graduation requirement and may be used to fulfill a practical art requirement.
