Background on the Career Videos

Summary

Since 1997, the U.S. Department of Labor has funded efforts to develop a multi-media library of occupational career information for use in the national One-Stop Career Center Program. Approximately 540 videos have been developed and are used in all aspects of career exploration and planning. The U.S. Department of Labor decided to eliminate funding for the program.

America’s Career Resource Network Association (ACRNA) was asked to determine the feasibility of developing a new partnership to continue this successful effort. The potential of a new partnership model provides an opportunity to reflect on the existing resources and to explore options for expanding and enhancing the product.
