NAPE's EXPLORE NONTRADITIONAL
CAREERS explores equal access to and
equity in educational options that lead to
the entire spectrum of career choices in
order for every student to be able to fulfill
their potential.Nontraditional careers are occupations or career fields
in which people from one gender comprise less than
25% of the workforce due to cultural stereotypes and
norms that have discouraged students from pursuing
them.

Explore Non Traditional Careers supports educators,
advisors, and administrators through a process of
examination, reflection, and action to center equity as a
means for supporting and encouraging students while
also addressing existing barriers to success.
