Title:Funding career pathways and career pathway bridges: A federal policy toolkit for states
Source:http://www.clasp.org/admin/site/publications/fi...
Date:2010
Organization:CLASP
Short Description:One approach many states are adopting to fix fragmented and leaky educational pipelines is that of career pathways and career pathway bridge models. Career pathways are linked education and training services that “enable students, often while they are working, to advance over time to successively higher levels of education and employment in a given industry or occupational sector.
Annotation:One approach many states are adopting to fix fragmented and leaky educational pipelines is that of career pathways and career pathway bridge models. Career pathways are linked education and training services that “enable students, often while they are working, to advance over time to successively higher levels of education and employment in a given industry or occupational sector. Each step on a career pathway is designed explicitly to prepare students to progress to the next level of employment and education” (Oregon Career Pathways initiative). Ideally, career pathways are not a separate program, but a framework for weaving together adult education, training, and college programs that are currently separated into silos and connecting those services to employers’ workforce needs.
