Career Pathways 2022-23 Grantees

High quality college and career pathways from secondary through postsecondary, connected to the workforce, can lead to meaningful careers with family-sustaining wages. Career pathways built on best practices provide access to rigorous coursework, non-academic student supports, exposure to work-based learning and career readiness, and opportunities for college and career exploration.

Foundations of Career and Academic Learning (FOCAL Grants) support schools who are interested in integrating school-wide efforts around career readiness, with specific attention on leveraging personalized learning plans or MyCAP.
