Thanks to all who responded with information about a career study for
middle school.  I
haven't had time to check all of these out.  I also found that doing
a search on specific
career fields was a little easier.

Julie, the only web sites I have found (Career Web and Catapult) have

mostly info on jobs.

If you have access to America Online you can GoTo Keyword and type
in
"careers".  You will see an occupational database.
This is basically set up in much the same way as the Occupational
Outlook
Handbook.  Also on America Online you can check out Hoover Business
Resources.  Here you will find information company profiles as well
as
industry profiles.

The USGPO publication Occupational Outlook Handbook is pretty
standard
for career info.  It's up-to-date (pub. biennielly) and pretty
accurate.
You have to pre-pay for anything you order from USGPO, although I
keep
standing orders for print. off. stuff through my periodical
subscription
service so I don't have to hassle with it.  Find info on ordering

Handbook at www.maine.com/wintergreen/catalog/b4.html
