A good resource to help with students still in high school is our Career Clusters section.

This web site identifies those high demand occupations-many of which do not require years and years of schooling. In fact, there are lots of alternatives to a 4-year degree, including 2-year degrees, apprenticeships, vocational certificates, and work experience.
