Which of the following is NOT a CTE Career Cluster?

The correct answer is A because Leadership is not recognized as a specific Career and Technical Education (CTE) Career Cluster. CTE Career Clusters are broad groups that encompass various occupational fields designed to guide students toward specific career pathways. The other choices represent established Career Clusters within the CTE framework.

For example, Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources is a significant cluster that includes careers related to farming, horticulture, animal science, and environmental sustainability. Health Science encompasses various careers in medical and healthcare fields, while Business Management focuses on careers in business administration, finance, and management. Each of these clusters has defined pathways that prepare students for professions within those industries, unlike Leadership, which serves more as a skill set or competency rather than a distinct career pathway.
