Arts, Media and Entertainment

Film, Television and Video

Commercial Music

Creative and expressive, a communicator with a vision – you’re full of ideas, love working with a team and using the latest technology as your tool. Television production has always been an exciting and fast-paced field for the creative and energetic, but innovations in computer and broadband technologies have produced an explosion of opportunity in this dynamic field.

Do you enjoy making music or the excitement of performing on stage? Do you find yourself tapping your feet to the beat of whatever music you hear? If there isn’t a song playing on your iPod, there’s always one playing in your head. You find music in everything, even the sounds of nature or the rhythm of a jackhammer tearing up the street. Whether you’re mixing it up on stage or recording and mixing it down in the studio, in front of an audience or behind the scenes, the field of commercial music is highly competitive and it requires talent, teamwork, and dedication to find success.

The Arts, Media, and Entertainment industry sector is big business in California. It offers jobs that require a vast range of creative and technical knowledge and skills. Emerging out of recession and into recovery, the outlook forecasts that global entertainment and media spending is expected to rise from $1.4 trillion in 2010 to $1.9 trillion by 2015, growing at an annual rate of 5.7%. Read more at http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/92662/pwc-outlook-digital-is-driving-entertainment-and-m#ixzz2XPJyxq5D. The industry offers jobs that require a vast range of creative and technical knowledge and skills – almost sure to fit your talents and passion. The industry represents 11% of the economic base in California, according to an analysis of the labor market conducted by the Employment Development Department in June 2012. Flexibility and adaptability to a rapidly changing professional landscape are key elements to an individual’s ultimate success in a career in arts, media, and entertainment.

Applied Digital Media

Photography

Artistic and computer savvy, you are already imagining ways you would lay out this page differently. Whether you were putting your talents to use

on the school yearbook or on your family’s annual holiday letter, you’ve always had an “eye” for creating something that is visually appealing.

Computer hardware and software will be important tools in your work, as will teamwork and excellent communication skills. You’ll learn to use color, type, illustration, photography, animation, and various print and layout techniques

to effectively capture your viewers’ attention.

You never go anywhere without your camera. Everything you see is a photo waiting to be captured. Images are everywhere; major events and sunny days are not the only times to use one’s photographic skills. Photographers produce and preserve

images by painting a picture, telling a story, or recording an event. Photography requires both technical skill and expertise combined with artistic creativity.

Affirmation Theory

Affirmation theory is the idea that frequently women and

men attribute success and failure differently.

A woman who fails a test tends to think that she is bad at the subject or that she is stupid —that it’s about her.

A man tends to think that the test was unfair or the teacher didn’t cover that material —that it’s about something else.

A woman who aces a test tends to think it was luck, or the teacher, or an easy test —that it is not about her effort and intelligence.

A man, however, will think, “Yeah, I am just that good!”

None of this is true — the effort you put into learning the material is directly related to the results you attain. Study more and you will earn better grades.

(Helpful Hint: Study in a group and you’ll get better grades too.)

Building and Construction TradesGo Green! California was the first state to enact a Green Building Code, and it’s the home of numerous local governments that have mandated green standards for new construction. Training in green building and construction jobs is crucial if the state is to make the most of the current potential for economic growth and increased sustainability. During the recent recession, the green building market grew 50%, this was at a time when most businesses were in decline. Along with a growth in green building, construction and its related industries are seeing an increase in retirements, which will result in continued employment growth.

Women can gain access to a range of high-paying jobs that also offer the reward of tangible and immediate impact on environmental quality in this industry. Visit http://www.tradeswomen.org/ for more information about opportunities for women in the trades!

You love taking things apart and putting them back together. Knowing how machines operate and solving puzzles is important to you. Air conditioning, refrigeration, plumbing, and electrical professions are about improving our lives. Our world could not function without the talents and skills of the technicians who install and service equipment making our daily life more comfortable. Homes, office buildings, malls, supermarkets, and facilities all rely on air conditioning, refrigeration, and electrical and plumbing systems to create and maintain a safe, healthy, and comfortable environment.

To you, details make a difference. Perhaps you are concerned with how things are made and how

to improve the energy efficiency in homes and buildings. The Construction Technology program

prepares individuals with the technical knowledge and skills in the area of building construction.

This includes instruction on blueprint reading, materials, International Building Codes and

Ordinances, plumbing, electrical and mechanical codes, and energy conservation.

MYTH BUSTINGSometimes in American society we hear that “girls and women

can’t” and “boys and men aren’t.” Women can’t do math and men aren’t nurturing. Women can’t lift heavy things and

men aren’t preschool teachers. There are many reasons to rethink these beliefs! There are studies and data that show that businesses are stronger when they have a mix of men and women as well as employees of all races. We all have

different ideas and abilities and if we are all working together, it strengthens the product! From construction to engineering – women and men are amazing! From daycare to nursing –

men and women excel!

Human Services

Sign Language Interpreting

You listen and communicate effectively. Your desire to help others is something that comes naturally. If you envision a future where you can grow and develop professionally in a field that lets you play an instrumental role in the community, then a career in Human Services provides the perfect setting where your energy and passion for helping will be valued.

You are an expressive person. You enjoy communicating with others. You enjoy learning other languages and enjoy exploring different cultures. Interpreters enable the cross-cultural communication necessary in today’s society by converting a spoken language into sign language. These language specialists do more than translate words. They relay concepts and ideas between modes of communication.

Community Interpretation

Early Childhood Education

You speak English and Spanish fluently. Disciplined and quick thinking, you believe you can bridge the gap between English and Spanish speakers. Interpreters are the keys that unlock the door to

understanding between people in a variety of settings, situations, and circumstances.

You’re a take-charge kind of person. You like to learn and share this knowledge with others. You are organized and dependable. You like to be around children and are

concerned about future generations. Early childhood educators do the important work of nurturing and educating children during their most formative years. They work to

stimulate children’s curiosity and imagination by providing them opportunities to learn through play experiences and to question, observe, investigate, and

experiment. They consult with parents, administrators, and child development specialists.

The program is designed for students who are attending a California community college or four-year institution and pursuing a Child Development Permit to teach or supervise in licensed children’s centers. Selected recipients attending a California community college are eligible to receive up to $1,000 each academic year. Once selected, students must maintain half-time enrollment, satisfactory academic progress, financial need, and intend to pursue an approved course of study leading to a permit. Prior to receiving an award payment, students must sign a Service Commitment Agreement to provide one full year of service in a licensed children’s center for every year they receive a grant.

Engineering and ArchitectureTHE BLUEPRINT FOR A GREAT CAREER

Most STEM (science, technology, engineering, or math) fields are dominated by men. That makes these fields an excellent career choice for women! Careers in STEM fields are on the rise and industry can’t keep up with the demand.

Women excel in this career field. So girls, before you think it’s not for you, check out: http://forgirlsinscience.org/women-in-stem/. Guys, you already know you’re welcome, but did you know how much you are needed? The sky’s the limit and possibilities and paychecks are endless. The National Association of Colleges and Employers reports that engineers have a consistently high salary and out of the top ten highest paying careers, seven are in engineering.

Solving 3-D puzzles is a piece of cake for you. You can draw the layout of any space your mind imagines. Your imagination and ability to visualize spatial orientation can take you to the next level in drafting technology, engineering technology, and architecture. You’ll use computer-aided drafting and design (CAD), in careers that are in demand to prepare detailed drawings of a variety of structures from houses and buildings to highways and bridges, all according to detailed specifications.

You like gadgets and electronic devices. You enjoy working out practical problems and solutions. You have a great deal of patience. You pay attention to the small details. Electronics technology is essential to the development, manufacture, modification, and maintenance of a wide range of products and equipment. It requires layout, building, testing, troubleshooting, repairing, and modifying the development and production of electronic components, parts, equipment, and systems. You can find electronic engineering technicians working on anything from computer equipment, to missile control systems, to test equipment, even machine numerical controls.

stereotype threat.Claude Steele in his book, Whistling Vivaldi, defines Stereotype Threat as “the idea that students who belong to a stereotyped group are at risk of confirming, as self-characteristic, a negative stereotype about one’s group.” When a woman who is aware of the stereotype that “women can’t do math” takes a math test and the first thing she’s asked is her name and gender (typical on a standardized test), the stereotype is brought to mind and a host of issues may come into play. Rather than focusing on the material in front of her, she may be distracted or have narrowed attention, she may feel anxious or self-conscious, or she may withdraw effort or expend too much effort.

Studies have shown that when a stereotyped student hears – directly or indirectly through micro-messages — that they are not as capable at a skill perceived to be necessary for a career, they will not even try to participate. This holds true for students of color, older students, single parents, women, low income students, etc. It’s true in the classroom or on the basketball court, and it’s true at work too. Whenever a student is aware of a stereotype, they can be affected by it. Generally, the stereotype is not true! Women can do high-level science, blondes aren’t dumb, and not all Asians are math whizzes. However, when we believe things that are depicted in our home culture, pop culture, or mass media, we limit our career options.

When you go into a situation that is high-stress and high-stakes, remember to:

• Deemphasize your threatened social identity by remembering that you are not only a woman, you’re also a good student, a strong leader, a capable scientist, etc.• Give yourself affirmations: “I studied hard, I took good notes all semester, I have practiced all year for this, etc.”• Emphasize high standards with assurances of your capability: “I am going to do my best and I know I can get a good grade on this exam, etc.”• Think about role models who are good at this task subject: Condoleezza Rice, Sally Ride, Barak Obama.• Recognize that some tests and tasks are difficult but if you put in the effort, you will succeed!• Know that you are not born with a certain amount of ability. The more effort you put into something, the more you are able to succeed!

Stereotype threat affects women in relation to men, blacks in relation to whites, whites in relation to Asians, etc. Any time a person identifies as a member of a stereotyped group their performance may suffer. This effect is seen more often

on tests that are important for the test taker.

So what can YOU do about it?

You opened your first savings account with profits from your lemonade stand. While

others are thinking about where they’ll find their first job, you’re already designing your

next business venture. Entrepreneurs play a key role in any economy. These are the people who

have the skills and initiative necessary to take good new ideas to market and make the right decisions

to make the idea profitable. The reward for the risks taken is the potential economic profits the entrepreneur

could earn.

You have a desire to implement changes to make the world a better place. You have a natural

ability to cooperatively work with and teach others. One function of human resources is to

implement programs dealing with productivity improvement and total quality management.

Human resources professionals provide specialized services and their goal is to foster positive relationships to increase job

satisfaction while meeting customer and client needs.

You are a detail oriented person who likes working with numbers. You like having rules, but you also like being able to take risks. An expressive communicator and an understanding listener, you are sensitive to the problems of others. In banking and finance you will find yourself answering customers’ questions and explaining available services such as deposit accounts, bonds, and securities.

Finance and BusinessWANT A CAREER YOU CAN BANK ON?

The Business and Finance industry sector, a vital contributor to the U.S. economy, employs more than 6,000,000 people in related occupations. In all areas of this sector, advances in technology and trends toward direct marketing provide for many

fast growing career opportunities. For example, employment of accountants and auditors is expected to grow at a rate about equal to the average for all other occupations, and career opportunities in banking are expected to increase at a greater rate

than normal as a result of the expansion of banking and investment institutions. Because of market globalization and an increasing demand for investment advice, employment in financial management will also continue to grow.

You pay attention to detail and are thorough in completing tasks. You enjoy investigating facts. You like working with numbers and data. You stretch your brain to develop great ideas and solutions.

Bookkeeping, accounting, and auditing clerks are an organization’s financial recordkeepers. If you choose a career in accounting, you will be checking figures, postings and documents for correct entry, complying

with federal and state laws and company policies, and summarizing numerical and financial data to compile and keep financial records using journals, ledgers and computers.

You are organized and efficient. There is no computer application that you are not able to master. As reliance on technology continues to expand in offices, the role of the office professional has greatly evolved. Office automation and organizational reform led office professionals to assume tasks once

reserved for managerial and professional staff.

You appreciate other cultures and customs. You like to meet people from faraway places. You may have purchased something in pounds or pesos. Business is a legal organization designed to sell goods and/or

services to consumers or other businesses in an effort to generate profits. International business is one with interests in other countries. These businesses are often called multinational corporations. This career

includes working with cultural considerations, such as law and the legal system, economics, political policy, marketing, language, living standards, cultural traditions, etc.

You are the leader of the pack. You enjoy challenges. You have a natural ability to analyze a situation and make executive decisions. You are dependable and organized. Logistics is the art of managing and

controlling the flow of goods, information, and other resources, like energy, between a producer and consumer. It involves combining information, transportation, inventory, warehousing, material handling,

and packaging. Logisticians are responsible for the entire lifecycle of a product, including acquisition, distribution, internal allocation, delivery, and, finally, disposal of resources.

You are reliable and responsible. You are a self-motivated person. Business managers plan, direct, and coordinate the operations of public and private organizations. Business management involves everything

from how technology can improve efficiency to the best way of using a team. For example, business managers formulate policies, manage daily operations, and plan material usage and human resources.

WorkExperienceWork experience is a one hour per week class which allows students to

earn up to 4 units per semester for experience gained through employment or volunteer service. Once a student enrolls in work experience class, the teacher will determine their placement in either general work experience or a specific occupational work experience. See the college catalog for a list of occupational work experience classes.

Units Determination: Work experience varies from 1-4 units. For every one (1) unit of work experience credit students must complete 75 hours of paid work or 60 hours of volunteer work during the college semester. No more than 20 hours per week may be applied toward this work requirement. Below is a general guide to help students enroll in the appropriate number of units of work experience.

GAINFUL EMPLOYMENTBefore making an educational investment in a career and technical education training program, students should have a general idea about how much the program will cost and what careers the program prepares for. Every certificate program greater than 18 units must disclose this information to consumers. It is called Gainful Employment Disclosure. Below is a link to gainful employment disclosures.

Here are the top three things students might find useful on the gainful employment disclosure:

1. Find the estimated costs for the program, including tuition, fees, books, and supplies.

2. Links to O*Net Online (http://www.onetonline.org), a national clearinghouse that provides information about specific occupations, like average wages and employment projections. It also contains a wealth of other job specific information like: typical tasks, knowledge, skills, and abilities, just to name a few, on the O*Net site. The database is organized by Standard Occupational Codes (SOC) and nearly every possible occupation is classified.

3. Compare a program at one college to a program at another college, even when they don’t have the same exact name, by using the Classification of Instructional Program (CIP). The CIP code is an identification code used by colleges throughout the nation.

Moreno Valley College: http://www.mvc.edu/academicdepts/hhps/Norco College: http://www.norcocollege.edu/cte/Pages/CTE-Programs.aspxRiverside City College: http://academic.rcc.edu/gainfulemployment/

Our colleges provide employment services for students who are currently enrolled and for CTE program graduates. For student employment opportunities on campus, contact the Student Employment Office. Students needing assistance in obtaining an off-campus job or internship, especially after graduation, should meet one-on-one with a CTE Employment Placement Coordinator. There is a CTE Job Placement office at each college that provides a full range of job search assistance, including referrals to employers with job vacancies. Also, be sure to like us on Facebook at fb.com/rccdCTE to receive updates about employment opportunities.

so you’re going to college. . .congratulations! What are you going to study? What do you want to spend 80,000 hours doing? What are your passions? What are you good at? Are there training opportunities at Moreno Valley College, Norco College, or Riverside City College? Moreover, how much money do you need to earn to support yourself and your family?

First things first, let’s find out how much money you’ll need to support your family in your neighborhood. Two scenarios:1. Your pretend family: Let’s say you have a family of five--three kids and two adults (you and your partner).2. Your actual family: If you have a family, you know how many kids and adults.

Now, with your family in mind, visit http:www.insightcced.org/calculator.html. Enter the number of adults in your family (1 if you are single and 2 if you are in a relationship) and the number of children you have (or want to have). If you’re using your “pretend,” family say your kids are young because that is when they cost the most--childcare is expensive. For example, in Riverside County, in your pretend family of five, each adult needs to earn $20.42 per hour to be comfortable and safe. A single parent with two children, one school-age and the other a teenager, needs to earn about $44,000 a year, or $21 per hour.

Remember, seldom do you earn your degree and get a job making more than a starting salary. And don’t spend time and money earning a degree or certificate in a field that will never pay you enough to support your family!

“Do what you love. You’ll be better at it.” - Francis Ford Coppola

LOVEThings

Does your career choice line up with your skills and passions? Ok, now you know you need to be able to work up to at least $21 per hour. Next, go learn about yourself. Do some career exploration--taking an interest inventory or skills test is a good start. Find the intersection between what you love to do and what you can be paid to do. Visit websites to get some good ideas. Remember, this is about the next 80,000 hours of your life and your family’s security--don’t skip this step! Take a few tests to come up with 6-8 careers that sound interesting to you and for which you have or can acquire the required skills. Don’t worry about what you already know; you’re going to college to learn more. Think about what you like. Do you like working with your hands? Working outside? Working alone or in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? Do you see the big picture or do you prefer to focus on the details? Go to http://explorecte.com/career-investigation to get started on your career investigation.

requirements and will there be a job when you finish school?So, you know how much you need to earn and you have a

list of six to eight jobs that align with your skills, abilities, and interests. Now find careers where you can get hired

AND earn a good income. You need to have an idea of what careers are likely to have job openings in Riverside

County when you finish your degree or certificate. Is manufacturing or logistics going to continue to grow? Will they be building lots of new homes in two years?

Will there still be a need for new nurses? Visit the following websites to do some research:

California Employment Development Departmenthttp://www.labormarketinfo.edd.ca.gov

O*NET OnLinehttp://www.onetonline.org/

Career One Stophttp://www.careerinfonet.org/

Go through all the careers on your list and make sure that a) there is training at Moreno Valley

College, Norco College or Riverside City College, b) it pays enough, and c) there will be a job

market when you graduate! If a career does not fulfill both b and c (wages and jobs), cross it off your list! Get a degree in a career that will pay

you enough to support you and your family and where there will be jobs!

Now, make a plan.Apply at one of Riverside Community

College District’s three colleges. Fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)

online at https://fafsa.ed.gov/index.htm. Beware of websites that try to charge you - the

application is free! Get daycare lined up… and backup daycare… and a backup to the backup.

Find a bus route. Go to your college orientation.Finally, now that you think you know what

you want to do, make an appointment to see a counselor. Show them the steps you took to make your plan. Ask for input. Are there other steps you

need to take? Get cracking - it’s YOUR life!

If you have any doubt about a career choice, pause and spend some time thinking about all the steps

that should go into deciding on a career: 80,000+ hours is a long time doing something that doesn’t

pay enough or that you don’t enjoy!

IT’S TIME FOR A CAREER WITH A HEALTHY FUTURE

Health Science and Medical Technology continues to be one of the fastest-growing industry sectors in California, offering numerous opportunities and benefits like good salaries, health benefits, and growth opportunities. The Health Science and Medical Technology pathways and careers offer options to match a variety of the aptitudes, interests, abilities, and academic achievement of students in which both men and women excel. Dental hygiene, a career that is over 90% women (you’ve got some opportunities here men!), pays over $30 an hour. Wages and salaries are projected to increase and employment is expected to account for about 3.6 million new jobs or 19% of all jobs to be added to the economy.

You have an interest in health care, enjoy working with your hands as well as your mind, and want a career with responsibility. Dental assisting is a challenging and rewarding career that reaches into all areas of dentistry and beyond.

You love high drama and adrenaline pumping action. You can imagine yourself saving the life of another person or stopping the gush of blood from a leg. When the pressure is on, you are ready and alert. EMTs and paramedics may check vital signs, open airways, control bleeding, immobilize fractures, bandage wounds, and assist in other emergency situations.

Your personality generates trust. You are organized, detail oriented, and punctual. You are a multitasker, a gifted communicator and listener. As a medical assistant, you will be the first point of contact for patients. Physicians will depend on your ability to communicate effectively and create a courteous and relaxing environment for their patients.

You are a compassionate and patient person. Adapting to various situations, you listen and genuinely care about the welfare of people. You live to help others. Physician assistants practice medicine side by side with licensed physicians.

Caring and methodical, you love learning about health related topics and the human body. You get great satisfaction from helping others. Dental hygienists are an integral part of the dental team and provide preventive services and

education to patients.

You are dedicated and passionate. You enjoy working with, communicating with, and teaching people. You have a definite set of health routines and you value fitness in your life. Fitness and athletic professionals perform a variety

of complex human related activities, such as evaluating a participant’s strengths and weaknesses and informing them of corrective measures to improve their skills. If you are thinking of a career in the fitness and athletic professions,

you will need to work with a great deal of compassion and patience. You will need to have critical thinking skills, sharp decision making skills, and excellent interpersonal communication skills.

Caring and inquisitive, you love learning how the human body operates and working with a team in a fast-paced environment. Nursing is a dynamic and diverse field that reaches into all areas of health care and beyond. Nurses are

the first line of care that many patients receive and they play a critical role in ensuring that patients are well treated and all their needs are properly addressed.

Many programs in Health Science and Medical Technology have prerequisites, special registration, and other special requirements. Please contact the department for more information.

are the small ways people communicate. Micro-messages tend to be unconscious and unintentional but frequently show a person’s true feelings. Micro-messages are also the way people get feedback from others. Because the impact and consequences of constant exposure to micro-messages are frequently unrecognized, micro-messages can be harmful or helpful.

Micro-messages can help you succeed in you educational path and career or they can push you into or out of a training program that really interests you.

Be aware of the messages you send, as well as the messages you are receiving from others. THINK.

So What? What can you do about it?

MICRO-MESSAGES

What do micro-messages look like?

There are two types of micro-messages:1. Micro-inequities are negative messages that occur when people seem different.

They are discouraging and can have a negative impact on performance at school and at work.

2. Micro-affirmations are positive messages that make people feel welcome and valued. They can improve a person’s schoolwork or their efforts on the job.

At times, you may be completely unaware of the actual message sent by your teachers, peers, counselors, or family. Additionally, the message you see or hear can be very different from the message intended. How you interpret a message is as important as or more important

Welding

You have always wondered how things are made. The process of creation intrigues you. As a child, even before you could walk, you were taking apart your toys and rebuilding them. A career in manufacturing will allow you to work with integrated motion control systems and computer aided design (CAD) software.

You are a creative and artistic person. You enjoy challenges and you like to solve problems. Ultimately you like to admire your hard work in a finished product.

Welding is the most common way of permanently joining metal components. In this process, heat is applied to metal pieces, melting and fusing them to form a

permanent bond. Because of its strength, welding is used in many different fields from artistic metal sculpture to aerospace applications.

Insurance is protection against future financial loss from injury, illness, property damage, or liability due to losses of others. The insurance industry consists of insurance carriers (or insurers) and insurance agencies and brokers.

You like having rules, but you also like being able to take risks. You enjoy working with people and helping them make decisions to better their lives. Oftentimes one of the most complex and significant financial events in people’s lives is the purchase and/or sale of a home or an investment property. Due to the intricacy and importance of buying and/or selling real estate, people typically seek the help of real estate brokers and sales agents.

Public ServiceA CAREER SERVING PEOPLE SERVES A GREAT PURPOSE

The Public Services industry sector provides a foundation for students in government, public administration, public safety, legal services, and human services. In California, occupational employment projections forecast growth in all of this sector’s pathways. Job openings in state and local government services are expected to increase by 17%; in community and social services, by 22%; in legal services, by 16%; and in protective services, by 18%. This growth will result from heightened interest in homeland and border security as well as the retirement of workers from the baby-boom generation.

You have a lofty sense of justice, honesty, and ethics, but you also have the ability to adapt to various situations. You are a tolerant person who genuinely cares for

others. Law enforcement officers provide public safety by maintaining order, responding to emergencies, protecting people and property, and promoting good

community relations.

You are a logical thinker who likes to do research and investigate facts. A courteous, honest and ethical person, you like working with the public. As a

paralegal, you will find yourself performing duties such as preparing closings, hearings, trials, and corporate meetings.

You work well under stress. You are an effective communicator who has a desire to work with the public. Firefighters work to protect the community against injury,

loss of life, and destruction of property from fire. They help protect the public against dangers by rapidly responding to a variety of emergencies.

SELF-EFFICACYHow can you develop self-efficacy?Self-efficacy is the ability to see one’s self

as successful in a particular task or role. Self-efficacy can be developed.

People with a strong sense of self-efficacy:» View challenging problems as tasks to be mastered.» Develop a deeper interest in the activities in which they participate.» Form a stronger sense of commitment to their interests and activities.» Recover quickly from setbacks and disappointments.

While people with a weak sense of self-efficacy:» Avoid challenging tasks.» Believe that difficult tasks and situations are beyond their capabilities.» Focus on personal failings and negative outcomes.» Quickly lose confidence in personal abilities.

Mastering Experiences. As you succeed at new things, you will gain confidence in your ability to complete a task, solve a mathematical equation, or decipher a complex engineering task.Social Modeling. When you see others who look or sound like you or are interested in and good at the things that you are interested in, it provides evidence that you can do it too (girls CAN and boys DO, etc.).Social Persuasion. Simply having someone give you an honest pep talk can increase your self-efficacy.Psychological Responses. Realizing that it is not how you feel; it’s about how you think about how you feel that matters! It’s natural to be nervous when you are about to deliver a speech. However, if you think of the nervousness as catastrophic, you will most likely not do well nor take additional opportunities to master public speaking.

Logical and detail oriented, you like working with your hands and with computers to solve problems. Supply Chain Technologies, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Geographic

Information Systems (GIS) and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are used heavily within the warehousing and transportation industries. A supply chain technician installs, operates, supports, upgrades or maintains the software,

hardware, automated equipment and systems that support the supply chain.

Mechanically minded and determined, you enjoy working with the latest automotive

technology. You receive great satisfaction from solving problems. As the primary means of transportation in America, cars have always been an essential part of our

lives. Now, with cars becoming more technologically advanced, the demand for skilled auto workers is higher than ever. We rely on cars for

everything from getting to work, to making dinner, to rushing to the hospital in an emergency. As an automotive specialist, you will play a vital role in helping people get

to where they need to be when they need to be there.
