Career Pathways

Career Pathways is a workforce development strategy used in the United States to support students' transition from education into the workforce. This strategy has been adopted at the federal, state and local levels in order to increase education, training and learning opportunities for America’s current and emerging workforce.

Career pathways are an integrated collection of programs and services intended to develop students’ core academic, technical and employability skills; provide them with continuous education, training; and place them in high-demand, high-opportunity jobs.

A career pathways initiative consists of a partnership among community colleges, workforce and economic development agencies, employers, labor groups, and social service providers, see The Evolution and Potential of Career Pathways U.S. Department of Education, Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education (OCTAE), April 2015.
