Wake Tech offers programs in 13 career fields – groups of occupations that require similar knowledge and skills.
Career fields provide a way for students to organize their studies and follow a path that aligns with their career interests. Students can climb an educational ladder, moving from non-degree training to a related certificate, diploma or associate degree program. If they want to climb even further, they could then transfer to a related bachelor's degree program at a four-year college or university.
