O*NET OnLine Help Browse by Career Cluster
The National Career Clusters® Framework serves as an organizing tool for programs, curriculum design and instruction. Career Clusters contain occupations in the same field of work that require similar skills. They can help focus plans towards obtaining the necessary knowledge, competencies, and training for success in a particular career pathway.
The organization, clusters, sub-clusters, descriptions, example programs of study, and linkages to SOC occupations are sourced from National Career Clusters® Framework
external site by Advance CTE (2024 edition). Linkages to O*NET-SOC detailed occupations are developed by the National Center for O*NET Development.
In the example that follows, “Financial Services” is selected from the pull-down menu.
The subsequent screen provides a list of occupations that require similar skills in the field of Financial Services.
