The Power and Promise of Pathways

College and career pathways engage students in dynamic learning while preparing them for success in postsecondary education and training, careers, and life. The Power and Promise of Pathways, written by Hans Meeder of the National Center for College and Career Transitions, offers both the information and action needed to lead an effective pathways initiative in schools, colleges, and/or communities. Using cutting-edge research and real-life examples, Mr. Meeder explores:

• The value in developing and utilizing a clear definition of college, career, and life readiness for youth and adult learners
• A step-by-step approach to build a sustainable pathway system
• A career exploration system that significantly impacts the way students and their parents plan for postsecondary education and careers
• Workforce trends and analysis, examining where the U.S. workforce is headed and identifying the sectors likely to experience growth
• Key elements of effective and dynamic teaching within a pathways system
• The ways in which current school and college initiatives may be integrated into the pathways system
