Destinations Career Program

What is the Destinations Career Program at MGLVA?

Are you a 9th–12th grader looking to get a jump-start on your future? With Destinations, you can use your high school years to figure out where you want to go and how to get there.

Career Clubs

Destinations students can enroll in career clubs, also called career technical service organizations (CTSOs). CTSOs give students with similar career interests the opportunity to connect, practice professional skills, work on service projects, take field trips, and compete against other schools at the local, state, and national levels. Destinations at MGLVA offers these career clubs:

DECA

DECA is a not-for-profit student organization in high schools and colleges around the globe that prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management. Founded in 1946, DECA has impacted the lives of more than ten million students, educators, school administrators, and business professionals. Participation allows students to:

  • Practice key leadership skills such as goal setting, consensus building, and project management

  • Explore professional options, discover new career paths, and access new opportunities

  • Connect with like-minded students who have similar career and academic interests

  • Take part in programs and activities that use the latest technology and apply cutting-edge research

HOSA

An international student organization, HOSA works to promote career opportunities in the health care industry and enhance the delivery of quality health care to all people. Founded in 1976, HOSA empowers students to become leaders in the global health community. Participating students are encouraged to:

  • Develop effective leadership qualities and skills

  • Make realistic career choices and seek successful employment in the health care field

  • Learn and identify current health care issues, environmental concerns, and survival needs of the community, the nation, and the world

  • Get involved in local, state, and national health care education projects

*Many Microsoft® Office certificates can be earned after completing one course. Other certificates require more classes to be better prepared, and students who attend Destinations for at least two years will have further exposure to career readiness education courses to be prepared for certification testing.
