4.3 Illustrate your career path

For this assignment, you will be mapping out how you will follow a career path, from this moment in high school, to the apex of your career. You will show this visually, using Procreate, as well as any other apps that you choose.

You should show at least six steps with that many icons or graphics. Consider the graphic below for inspiration, though this is not a template.

You might include some of the following steps:

• Taking high school courses, including this one.
• Building your portfolio
• Building a repertoire of skills
• Volunteering at a graphic design firm or getting any other relevant work experience
• Formal education - list programs you might be interested in
• Career explorations - any types of jobs that you would like to try out
• Entry level jobs - where you expect to start
• Getting experience and continuing with skills development
• Finding mentors
• Branching out
• Finding your niche
• Developing your brand
