Industry-Based certifications are valuable in multiple career clusters. If the certification is earned, a district should report the certification regardless of the primary career cluster identified on the list.
In the tables below, certifications are listed by the career cluster with which they most closely align.
The 1 page resources are provided as a resource to help districts in their research of industry-based certification options for students. The certifying entity determines all requirements for their certification and additional information is available on the certifying entities website.
