What is a career path?
Career paths typically refer to either your path through an industry or your path through an organization. For example, if your goal is to become a principal, you'd typically start as a teacher and work on your administrative credentials while teaching. If you're in a large district, you might chart a path within your district.
What are the requirements for career path success?
One of the requirements for career path success is to connect and nurture professional relationships. Not only do these contacts put a bit of fun into the everyday stress of your work life, but one of them might just be the person to help you get in the door of your dream job
Is your career path linear?
While most people aim for each job in their career path to follow a linear pattern and be progressively better than the last, it’s not always the case. A career path may meander, sometimes going as far as curving in on itself, before reaching your intended destination.
