Most Florida jobs require postsecondary credentials. The question is: which credentials actually lead to good careers?
High-value career pathways answer that question. They connect students to programs aligned with in-demand, high-wage jobs in their regions. They turn education into employment, and credentials into economic mobility.
Florida is building the infrastructure to make high-value pathways a reality, and your region can be part of it. This webinar will:
- Share key findings from Florida’s first statewide Career Pathways Baseline Assessment, including what’s working, where gaps exist, and what students and families need most
- Explore how other states are aligning education and workforce systems, and what Florida can learn
- Introduce FCAN’s new Talent Strong Florida High-Value Pathways Initiative, an effort to strengthen regional career pathways ecosystems
- Announce a competitive funding opportunity for Florida LCANs ready to design and implement high-value career pathways strategies in their regions
FCAN staff will be joined by these guest speakers:
- Dr. Carrie Henderson, TSG Advisors
- Career pathways strategist and advisor to state and regional education systems nationwide. Dr. Henderson will share insights from Florida’s Career Pathways Baseline Assessment and discuss national best practices in building education-to-career alignment.
- Adriana Harrington, ExcelinEd
- Senior policy advisor focused on workforce alignment and postsecondary value. Harrington will explore how states are using policy to strengthen career pathways and what’s working across the country
