Locate favorited careers and clusters

Naviance now uses the updated National Career Clusters Framework. As part of this update, pathways are now called sub-clusters. Because of these changes, some career clusters and pathways you've saved may no longer be available. If this happens, a message will appear. Select Show similar options to find the closest matches. To remove unavailable clusters or pathways from your favorites, select Favorited.

To review your list of favorite careers, clusters, and sub-clusters, go to:

  • Careers and select Favorite Careers and Clusters

  • The heart icon and select Favorite Careers and Clusters

From My Favorite Careers and Clusters:

  • Select an option from the Show Types list to filter your list.

  • Click Favorited to remove the career, cluster, or sub-cluster from your list.

  • Review Suggested Clusters and Sub-clusters from Naviance.
