Is a Career in Manufacturing for Me?
Great Question!
Your first question is about what you love to do - then find a career that matches your interest.
​
Begin with a career assessment tool such as Washington Career Bridge. With just a few questions, you can explore many careers and follow links to learn about many programs.
While we would love you to work in manufacturing, we want you to find the best fit to succeed in your career. Starting with Career Bridge can help you find information about careers, training programs, and other resources to get you started.

Aligning with High School & Beyond Plans
The High School and Beyond Plan is a Washington State requirement to guide students to a career pathway.
​
The plan personalizes experiences and helps students align goals with personal values, strengths, and interests.
​​
The Challenge
Students prepare their plans in seventh or eighth grade and continue to revise them throughout high school. Unfortunately, most students are not exposed to many careers, resulting in misaligned career choices.
​
Our Goal
We want you to explore careers and launch YOUR future. Check out some additional resources to better align your career choice.
