2. Welcome and Introductions
Katherine Bergman- Career Ladders Project
Robert Curtis- ConnectEd

3. Outcomes Map current pathway programs
Identify courses that could be articulated, dual enrolled, or developed to increase industry certifications, support access to advanced coursework and improve student success in the pathway.
Identify opportunities at both community college and high school levels to strengthen pathway programs of study, prioritize them, and begin action planning for work the Community of Practice can engage.

4. Introductions Name, Organization, Position/Role
Your first job after high school?
What are you hoping to get out of today?

Each year dropouts represent $320 billion in lost lifetime earning potential
SOURCE: Alliance for Excellent Education, “The High Cost of High School Dropouts: What the Nation Pays for Inadequate High Schools,” (Washington, DC: 2008).

7. Need to improve transitions…
Two-thirds nationally enroll in one or more level of Dev. Ed. (remediation), larger percentage are assigned and don’t enroll
Only 40% of community college students nationally complete a credential or transfer within 6 years

15. What is Pathway mapping
Powerful process to identify, align, and strengthen K14 pathways across systems
A way to communicate the benefits of pathway education to all stakeholders
Roadmap to high quality pathways
Identify gaps
Northern California Career Pathways Alliance

16. What Pathway Mapping is not
Course content
Alone, it won’t make any changes to program.
Northern California Career Pathways Alliance

17. Benefits of Pathway Mapping
Identify gaps in the current pathway
Design includes program of study, transitions, post sec. completion, WBL & industry engagement.
Creates a clearer/bigger picture of the pathway
Communicate importance of pathway education to ALL stakeholders
Inform or leverage other funding sources/initiative (i.e. Perkins Funding, CCSS, NGSS)
