Learn about Career Tracks, a systemwide job classification structure.

Career Tracks (CT)

• Organizes job titles into occupation-specific groupings called families (e.g., Information Technology, Finance, Student Services). Within each family are more specific groupings, called functions, which contain different levels of responsibility and scope. These groupings consist of standardized titles. Each title has a generic description of the work typically performed.
