This enhanced multimedia version of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Outlook Handbook combines OOH career data with a variety of interactive tools designed to help users assess and explore their career options.

Nationally recognized as the premier source of comprehensive career information, the OOH provides valuable assistance to anyone making choices about their future by describing what workers do on the job, working conditions, required training or education, earnings, and expected job prospects in a wide range of occupations.

The OOH Career Center CD-ROM takes this information to the next level, providing a dynamic, high-tech companion to the 600-page Occupational Outlook Handbook. An interactive menu structure allows users to explore specific career descriptions, view a narrated overview of each OOH occupational cluster, take a two-part career assessment to match their skills and interests with potential careers, or link directly to a library of additional Web-based career resources.

In addition to a database of more than 250 detailed job descriptions covering 700 occupations, over 80 video clips capture what work is really like in the fastest-growing careers. This CD-ROM is a must-see for students looking to identify and explore their career options.

Features:

• Multimedia overviews of all 11 OOH occupational clusters.

• Interactive career assessment tools for personalized career suggestions.

• More than 80 “day-in-the-life” video clips for today’s fastest-growing careers.
