IT Applications Across Career Clusters

This project has developed a common language and framework for the teaching of information technology (IT) applications across 6 of the 16 career clusters identified by the U.S. Department of Education. In partnership with the National Association of State Directors of Career and Technical Education, EDC works with community college faculty to develop an electronic library of learning resources, including problem-based scenarios, to assist faculty in integrating IT into their programs and courses. Program areas include health; manufacturing, transportation, distribution, and logistics; scientific research, engineering, and technical services; education and training; and agriculture/natural resources.
