MajorClarity and Career Development Plans
 

A Career Development Plan (CDP) is a structured approach to help students in North Carolina explore careers and colleges, and plan for their future. Beginning in the 2024/25 school year N.C. General Statue 115C-158.10 mandates students in 8th and 10th grades have an active career development plan in place in order to be promoted to the next grade level.  A Career Development Plan includes a self-assessment of the student's interests, skills, values, and personality. Students explore career pathways and occupations that align with their identified interests. Students then align their academic courses and extracurricular activities with their career interests. Ultimately, students will graduate high school with a full portfolio of their career development plan. Students will also develop an online academic and career plan with the assistance of school counselors and school personnel.

 

Davidson County has launched MajorClarity, a high-tech online career development platform, in Grades 6-12 to implement the student career development plans. Guardians are encouraged to explore MajorClarity with their student. Students in grades 8 and 10 will be required to have an electronic guardian signature on their plan.  These plans will help steer students with their high school course schedule and beyond.

Careers included in the MajorClarity platform are from all career clusters, including jobs that do not require a college education as well as jobs that require varying degrees of college course work and varying types of college degrees. Major Clarity also includes microcredentials, college planning, resume building and many other career planning tools.
