This document is intended to help those who provide assistance for career decision making in Wisconsin to incorporate labor market information in their work with clients. The topics covered are as follows: (1) career decision making; (2) what labor market information is, including occupational descriptions and information on wages, hours, fringe benefits, employment trends, entry qualifications, advancement opportunities, education and training programs, the expected impact of technology, military training, and occupational characteristics; (3) how to use labor market information; (4) why counselors and others should use it; (5) where labor market information can be found, such as in the Wisconsin Career Information System (WCIS) and local, state, and national sources; and (6) how counselors and others can use labor market information. Twelve sample cases are used in the last chapter. The four appendices contain an annotated guide to using the WCIS for occupational and educational information, a developmental guidance model, a glossary of employment information terms, and an annotated guide to using periodical labor market information publications.
