This guide is intended to assist tech prep consortia/councils and high schools throughout Wisconsin in developing tech prep career maps. In the first section, a tech prep career map is defined as a counseling resource that presents a recommended sequence of specific courses and experiences designed to enable high school students to develop written career plans that will increase their competency levels and prepare them to make successful transitions to postsecondary education or work. The required and optional components of career maps are listed. Outlined in the next two sections are the responsibilities of tech prep consortia/councils and high schools with regard to development, dissemination, and use of tech prep career maps. The terms "occupational cluster" and "subcluster" are defined, and their relevance to the process of determining/organizing secondary-level course work is explained. Guidelines to using tech prep career maps to create meaningful learning experiences are presented. Appended are the following: diagram illustrating the relationship among clusters, subclusters, and instructional programs; sample clusters, subclusters, and instructional programs; and sample tech prep career maps.
