The Power and Promise of Pathways: How to Prepare All American Students for Career and Life Success

High school students are more fully engaged in their education and postsecondary decision-making when they understand the "real life" connections between education and future careers. The Power and Promise of Pathways: How to Prepare All American Students for Career and Life Success , written by the National Center for College and Career Transitions (NC3T) founder Hans Meeder, offers educators a comprehensive look at secondary pathways from the early planning stage to full implementation along with key issues relating to the transformation a pathways initiative brings to an entire community.
Topics are presented with current research and best practice examples:

â€¢ Defining career and life readiness and why this is important.

â€¢ Developing a comprehensive pathways system that addresses six key components.

â€¢ Building a career development system that deeply impacts how students and their parents plan for postsecondary education and careers.

â€¢ Integrating college, career, and life readiness into exciting and engaging pathway programs that also address critical workforce needs and opportunities.

â€¢ Collaborating meaningfully with employer and community organizations in order to form mutually beneficial partnerships that offer opportunities for students to experience the world beyond school.

â€¢ Integrating dynamic teaching and learning approaches into pathway programs so that students also learn important life and employability skills.
