Career Planning
When counselors are developing and reviewing a students’ Individual Graduation Plan, the student must be provided information developed by the Louisiana Workforce Commission (LWC) regarding the top twenty high-demand, high-wage jobs in the state and in the student’s region. A counselor or qualified designee must demonstrate to a student how to access the information on the LWC’s website and must print and provide a copy of the listing of the appropriate region’s top twenty high-demand, high-wage jobs to the student. The Department of Education shall display the link to the LWC’s website on its webpage and each city, parish, and other local public school board shall require each public middle school and high school under its jurisdiction to display the link on its website.
