Mission:

All students completing the Michigan education system will have the necessary academic, technical, and work behavior skills for success in a career of their choice and lifelong learning.

Purpose:

Michigan's Career Preparation System, an initiative announced by Governor John Engler in the 1997 State of the State address and created through amendments to the FY 1997-98 School Aid Act ( Public Act 93), as well as Executive Order 1997-15, is designed to give students a jump-start to their career by expanding options to explore a variety of career opportunities throughout their K-12 educations. The system is intended to ensure that each graduate will receive a quality education to prepare for higher education and their first job in today's competitive market.

Goals:

To ensure that career preparation is fully integrated into the Michigan education system.
To ensure that all students, with their parents, will be prepared to make informed choices about their careers.
To ensue that all students have the types and levels of skill, knowledge and performance valued and required in their education and career choices.
