The Career Technical Education Pathways Initiative prepares students to succeed in the workforce through newly formed partnerships between the California Community Colleges and the California Department of Education.

These partnerships provide students with a seamless career technical education (CTE) from middle grade through community college.

  • Career pathways and articulation
  • Career planning and development
  • Programs for underserved students
  • Business and industry engagement in CTE
  • CTE teacher recruitment and professional development
  • Capacity building, research, and evaluation
