HS Programs of Study National and State perspectives Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 High Schools That Work Pathways to Prosperity OSPI: Statewide Strategic Plan for Secondary Career and Technical Education Reflect, Transform, Lead: A New Vision for Career Technical Education

Carl Perkins and POS Incorporate and align secondary and postsecondary education elements Include academic and CTE content in a coordinated, non‐duplicative progression of courses Offer the opportunity, where appropriate, for secondary students to acquire postsecondary credits Lead to an industry‐recognized credential or certificate at the postsecondary level, or an associate or baccalaureate degree

Pathways to Prosperity

Pathways to Prosperity 27 percent of people with post-secondary licenses or certificates—credentials short of an associate’s degree—earn more than the average bachelor’s degree recipient. 21st century America, education beyond high school is the passport to the American Dream. But how much and what kind of post-secondary is really needed to prosper in the new American economy?

College for All does not mean BA

Setting the Right Target 70 percent of high school graduates now go to college within two years of graduating. Only 4 in 10 Americans have obtained either an associate’s or bachelor’s degree by their mid-twenties. Given these dismal attainment numbers, a narrowly defined “college for all” goal—one that does not include a much stronger focus on career-oriented programs that lead to occupational credentials—seems doomed to fail.
