Introduction

The States’ Career Cluster Initiative 9/01/02

Charles Losh, Ph.D., Project Director

The U.S. Department of Education Office of Vocational and Adult Education (OVAE) has

identified 16 career clusters representing career opportunities for the 21st century economy. These

clusters will frame student opportunities as they pursue postsecondary education and a wide range of

career opportunities from front-line to professional and managerial careers.

Helping students make their dreams become a reality was the driving force behind the

nation’s Career Clusters initiative launched June 1, 2001. Twelve lead states and the District of

Columbia were partners in the development of the tools supporting eleven career clusters which,

when combined with the five clusters that have already been developed, will represent all career

possibilities.

The National Association of State Directors for Career and Technical Education

Consortium (NASDCTEc) and their Board of Directors assumed leadership for coordinating the

project. This in itself was unique for a project of this scope. The Board and the State Directors

organization believed that this initiative was of such potential impact on the Career Technical

delivery system in the country that they needed to play this leadership role in the project, assuring

that the materials had utility in their states once completed. Therefore, the NASDCTEc in

conjunction with the State of Oklahoma (the project fiscal agent) prepared and submitted a proposal

to OVAE in January of 2001. This proposal was funded at a $2.2 million dollar level, with

expectations of a second year of funding of $2.5 million. The plan to develop eleven curriculum

frameworks was very aggressive, given that each of the prior projects, designed to develop and pilot

test materials for a single cluster, had received in excess of $1 million dollars for their multiyear

development work.

The project was designed to establish curriculum frameworks and supportive materials for

each cluster, with a broad-based advisory committee for each cluster, led by a state. There was also

a National Advisory Committee consisting of members from each of the cluster committees, along

with other stakeholders. The National and State Cluster advisory committees were responsible for

identifying the frameworks, pathway and foundation knowledge and skills, and other supportive

materials. The committees included representatives from states, schools, education and training,

business and industry, associations, and others directly impacted by the materials.

The development of materials for each of the eleven clusters was led by a different state,

with business and industry at the helm. The lead states included: Idaho and Iowa (jointly leading the

Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources cluster), Pennsylvania (Architecture and Construction),

Ohio (Marketing, Sales and Service), North Dakota (Finance), West Virginia (Hospitality and

Tourism), South Carolina (Business, Management and Administration), Kentucky (Human

Services), Arkansas (Law, Public Safety and Security), North Carolina (Science, Technology,

Engineering and Mathematics), Michigan (Education and Training), and Oklahoma and the District

of Columbia/Washington D.C. (jointly leading the Government and Public Administration cluster).

The five additional career clusters included Health Science led by the State of Utah,

Manufacturing led by the State of Indiana, Arts, Audio Video Technology and Communications led

by the V-TECS Consortium, Information Technology led by the Educational Development Center,

Inc., and Transportation, Distribution and Logistics Cluster led by the State of Illinois. These

clusters plan to complete their work by June 30 of 2003.

To facilitate and coordinate the developmental work of the Cluster Initiative, staff was

identified and housed at the Oklahoma Department of Career and Technical Education. The staff

consisted of four Cluster Coordinators: Marsha Daves, Greg Dewald, Curtis Shumaker, and Pam

Stacey. Additionally, Denise Christy provided research and web development support, Lisa

Batchelder provided financial support, and Karan Smith provided administrative support.

Development work for the States’ Career Clusters Initiative began June 1, 2001, and the first

meeting of lead states, OVAE staff, and cluster staff was held in Oklahoma City in mid-June. At this

meeting, project objectives, general direction, timelines, and the initial research goals were

identified. This work continued through the fall and winter of 2001 and included the identification

of cluster advisory committee members, the development of cluster frameworks based on the

prototype cluster models provided by V-TECS, and the identification of occupations and draft

pathways along with degrees and certificates associated with the career specialties/occupations in

each of the clusters.

In January of 2002, the lead state teams were brought together in Phoenix to begin the

process of developing knowledge and skill statements for each of the cluster pathways and

foundations. Contracted writers and lead state cluster advisory committee members, depending upon

the decisions of cluster leadership, carried out this work. A part-time editor in Oklahoma provided

consistency across the cluster knowledge and skill statements. One concern that was addressed early

in the process was the need for a “common look and feel” across the clusters. Ultimately, this was

accomplished not only for the eleven clusters in the States’ Career Clusters Initiative, but also

through close cooperative relationships between the projects, all the cluster knowledge and skill

statements were developed (or retro-fitted) using the same format. This format includes a

knowledge/skill statement with associated performance elements and measurement criteria. This

format provides the tools needed for curriculum and assessment developers as they take the

materials to the classroom.

The National Advisory Committee met in March of 2002, and reviewed the curriculum

frameworks, credentials list, and lead state advisory committee memberships and structures, and

forwarded those materials to the Executive Committee for the Project. The Executive Committee,

made up of the Board of the NASDCTEc, also met in March, approved the materials and discussed

the future actions needed to assure implementation of the cluster materials.

Originally, the project was designed for a minimum of two years and was to include the

identification of 110 pilot test sites across the country, along with the development of assessments

and certifications for the clusters. The Office of Vocational and Adult Education, however,

determined in November of 2001 that the goals of the project were “too broad”, and terminated the

project as of September 30, 2002.

Development of the products needed for curriculum and assessment was fast-tracked, with

the knowledge and skill statements, performance elements and measurement criteria ready for

validation by July 15, 2002. This was the result of a major effort of lead state advisory committees

and staff responding to the shortened timeline and the need for quality product.

Given the efforts of the developmental teams, cluster advisory committee members were

able to review and validate the knowledge and skills and supporting elements. Additionally, a

national web-based validation was conducted from July 15 to August 15, 2002. All 50 states were

invited to a dissemination meeting held in Charleston, South Carolina Sept 13, 2002, where the

materials were distributed to participants for their use in updating their curriculum.

Section IV – O*NET Crosswalk Report

1

Career Specialty/ Occupational Coding and Crosswalk Summary The objective of the Career Specialty/ Occupational Coding and Crosswalk project is to accomplish two basic tasks. The first is to design and establish a classification and coding structure for the States’ Career Clusters Initiative. When completed, the classification and coding structure will be compatible with existing occupational classification systems and designed in a manner that allows for easy updating and the flexibility to add additional career pathways and occupational specialties. Once the first step is completed for each cluster, the second step is to build a linkage system or crosswalk between the new career cluster classification system and the O*NET occupational classification system developed and operated by the U S Department of Labor. O*NET is a nationally recognized taxonomy with detailed descriptions and a rich database of information for each occupation. Explanation of Crosswalk Table The attached table lists each occupational specialty and its related O*NET occupation. It is sequenced by career pathway and occupational specialty code. It should be noted that the relationship between an occupational specialty and its related O*NET occupation is often not one-to-one. The O*NET occupation is often much broader covering two or more occupational specialties. In fact, even when multiple occupational specialties are assigned, they may only represent a part of a broader O*NET occupation. Column 1: Lists occupational specialties that were identified by the Career Clusters Initiative. The occupational specialties are organized by cluster pathways and represent occupational titles with no definitions. They are intended to be a sample of occupations that help define the cluster and pathway. Column 2: Represents related occupations from the O*NET occupational coding system. Note: A crosswalk from the occupational specialties to the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) codes is forthcoming. The National Crosswalk Service Center is currently developing the CIP to O*NET crosswalk which will be the bridge to the career cluster occupational specialties. You may access this crosswalk in the near future at: http://www.xwalkcenter.org/

Section VII – Validation Overview/ Results

VALIDATION REPORT Background Cluster advisory committees made up of business and industry representatives, secondary/postsecondary educators, associations/organizations, government agencies and other stakeholders developed and conducted an initial review of the knowledge and skills statements. From July 15, 2002 through August 15, 2002, the States’ Career Clusters Initiative conducted a national online validation of the knowledge and skill statements. The validation rated the degree of commonality and importance of each statement (see tables below). Each Cluster Committee reviewed the knowledge and skill ratings as well as any written responses to a particular statement. Likewise, each committee determined the appropriate action to take with regard to this data. Cluster Question: Question #1 : Is the knowledge and skill statement common to all occupations across the cluster ?�

Question #2 : Is the knowledge and skill statement important to workplace success and/or further education ?�

Pathway Question: Question #1 : Is the knowledge and skill statement common to all occupations across the pathway ?�

Question #2 : Is the knowledge and skill statement important to workplace success and/or further education ?�

Rating Key: Question #1:

Don't Know -N/A

Common to a few (25% or less)

Common to some (25 - 50%)

Common to many (51 - 75%)

Common to most (76 - 100%)�

Question #2:

Don't Know -N/A

Not important

Somewhat important

Important

Critical�

General Validation Statistics for the Eleven Clusters Total Number of Respondents: 1133 completed profiles, 828 completed validation Number of States/Others Represented: All 50 states/5 other Overall profiles of respondents: Organization Type Business/Industry –17.3 % State Agency – 13.4 %

Section VIII – Assessment Protocol Certification Protocol

Deliverable #7 Title: Protocol for Career Clusters Assessment 8/5/2002 4:00 PM Definition of Career Clusters Assessment Assessment, within the context of the Career Clusters Initiative, is defined as a measurement of what a learner should know and be able to do. The academic and technical knowledge and skills common to all occupations and pathways within a single cluster are initially addressed in the Career Clusters Initiative. Each cluster measures or assesses a learner’s knowledge and skills related to the cluster. Purpose of the Protocol for Career Clusters Assessments The purpose of this document is to provide:

• Minimum criteria for selecting existing assessment instruments that align to the academic and technical knowledge and skills identified for each cluster.

• Minimum criteria for developing new assessment instruments that align to the academic and technical knowledge and skills identified for each cluster.

• Minimum criteria for validating and determining reliability of assessment instruments.

Functions of Career Clusters Assessment Career Cluster Assessment serves to

• measure (assess) student achievement, both cognitive and performance, in areas of academic and technical knowledge and skills for each cluster

• provide the basis for a transportable, industry-endorsed certification.

Operational Guidelines for Career Clusters Assessment This protocol includes minimum criteria/expectations career cluster designers need to apply in the selection/development of assessment modalities. Career clusters assessment: CONTENT

• measures all 10 Foundation knowledge and skills. • customizes context of questions and applications to individual clusters. • reflects a high degree of specificity of measurable knowledge and skills. • aligns to academic standards. • connects to post high school standards and competencies. • is consistent with Perkins data-quality criteria.

FORM

• combines a minimum of two modalities: cognitive and performance. • includes an item bank that can accommodate multiple applications. • reflects quality design and clear formats.

APPLICATIONS AND USES

• offers diagnostic feedback to the learner. • provides added value to the user (employer, post high school); not required for employment. • affords portability of results. • provides cues for instruction.

3/11/02 2

ADMINISTRATION • validates identity of test takers through a secure system. • affords flexible administration, e.g. single assessment per foundation cluster topic or combination

of topics. • provides flexible timing for administration. • affords no cost or low cost to students. • includes an affordable, user-friendly process to cover administrative costs. • reflects an administration process that is as consistent as possible with other career cluster

assessments. • includes an affordable, user-friendly maintenance process.

VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY

• uses consistent, reliable, and technically strong elements. • is recognized by business and industry. • is recognized by post high school education and training.

Deliverable #8 Title: Protocol for Career Clusters Certification 8/23/2002 2:28 PM

Definition of Career Clusters Certification Certification, within the context of the States’ Career Clusters Initiative, documents learner achievement of the academic and technical knowledge and skills common to all pathways and occupations within a cluster. It is based on valid and reliable assessments. A certificate is recognized by employers, secondary education, and post high school education as “value added to the admissions process to further education, immediate employment process, and/or to employment advancement”. Purposes of the Protocol for Careers Cluster Certification The purposes of this document are to provide:

• Minimum criteria for selecting existing certification programs that align to the academic and technical knowledge and skills identified for each cluster.

• Minimum criteria for developing new certification programs that align to the academic and technical knowledge and skills identified for each cluster.

• Minimum criteria for determining the value of a certification program.

Functions of Career Clusters Certification Career Cluster Certification serves to provide a consistent, transportable method of documenting learner achievement of a Career Cluster’s validated academic and technical knowledge and skills. The system is based on valid and reliable assessments. Operational Guidelines for Career Clusters Certification This protocol includes minimum criteria/expectations career cluster designers need to apply in the selection/development of certification processes. Career clusters certification:

• Defines the purpose and scope of the certificate. • Bases issue of the certificate on assessed learner proficiencies and competencies related to a

Career Cluster’s validated academic and technical knowledge and skills. • Requires learner to meet the assessment benchmark identified. • Informs the public concerning the knowledge and skills of the certificate holder. • Indicates date of issue on the certificate. • Issues certificate from the State (State Director of Career-Technical Education or appropriate

designee) if the issuing organization is a secondary or post secondary education institution. • Issues certificate from the CEO (or an appropriate designee) of an issuing professional

organization/agency/institution/company. • Requires issuing organization to maintain a database (state and/or national) of certificate holders

based on the respective term of renewal.
