All
North Clackamas students will complete a Personal Education Plan (PEP).
The Personal Education Plan assists students in pursuing their
personal, academic and career interests, as well as post-high school
goals. The plan serves as a "road map" that guides the student's
learning through high school and prepares than for a successful
transition to next steps. The North Clackamas School District uses the
Career Information system (CIS) as the vehicle for students to document
their personal education plan.
What is CIS? The
Oregon Career Information System (CIS) provides occupational and
educational information to help students learn about the world of work
and education. CIS works with schools, colleges, social agencies, and
businesses who provide career guidance and employee development
services. The information that CIS develops is comprehensive; for
example:
Current employment, wages, outlook, hiring practices,
preparation, and licensing, in addition to the skills, abilities, and
knowledge required, are reported for each of over 540 occupation
titles. These occupations cover over 95% of the labor market in Oregon.
Every postsecondary program of study or training offered in Oregon is
described within one of over 600 program categories. More than 150
topics of information, from admission requirements and costs to
services for students with disabilities, are provided for each
postsecondary school in Oregon. Similar information is included about
national two-year, four-year, and graduate institutions.
A
complete scholarship and a financial aid database that lists national,
state, and local awards is available along with a tool to sort the
entries based upon an individual’s characteristics.
CIS also includes information about self-employment, job search, industries, and the military as an employer
