Career Ladder
Students successfully completing the A.S. degree program or certificate will be qualified for entry level positions for private archaeological firms and for government agencies. Many archaeologists work for government agencies or private corporations in a profession required by federal, state and local laws and regulations - Cultural Resources Management. California currently has over 100 employers who hire entry-level archaeological technicians. Many former Cabrillo College archaeology students work for local cultural resource management firms and various agencies.

Cabrillo College's Archaeology Technology Program adds two missing rungs to the Archaeology career ladder. The initial rung of certification builds competency in hands-on skills, as well as develops strong writing capability. An A.S. in Archaeology continues the basic skills with additional writing and computing skills to allow successful ladder progress. The combination of academics and work place allows for continual movement between the two areas as additional knowledge and skills are required.
