Are Career Pathways on the Brink of Something Big?
Description:
Career pathway programs and systems have emerged as the 21st century talent development strategy that bridges the demand and supply sides. While opportunity has expanded through incentives and expectations regarding career pathways in federal and state policies, bills, and laws, the promise of career pathways as an equity strategy has not been fully realized, as of yet. In this session, state leaders with a deep commitment share what they have done to create more inclusive policies and practices
