Career Pathways Defined

A career pathway is a coherent sequence of rigorous academic and career courses that begins in high school and leads to an associate degree, a bachelor’s degree and beyond, and/or an industry-recognized certificate or license. Career pathways are developed, implemented, and maintained by partnerships involving educators, community leaders, and employers.

Career Pathways Defined

Every career pathway program has three basic components—

Secondary PostsecondaryBusiness.

Career Pathways DefinedPostsecondary Component Provides alignment and articulation with baccalaureate

programs Provides industry-recognized skills and knowledge Provides opportunities for employment at multiple exit

pointsBusiness Component Provides opportunities for job-shadowing, site visits,

internships, and other worksite learning experiences Provides curriculum design and feedback Provides up-to-date information that enables educators

to stay abreast of the real demands of the workplace Provides resources ranging from mentoring to funding
