Andy, thanks for sharing these wonderful opportunities.
This is a great series that will promote best practices, community dialogue, and resource sharing. I would like to direct everyone to some of the LINCS Resources that provide additional information and strategies. Career Pathways Toolkit: A Guide for System Development and Career Pathways Toolkit: Six Elements for Success - Element Three: Design Education and Training Programs. There's a wealth of information in our resource collection.
I look forward to learning from these webinars.
Sincerely,
Kathy Tracey
Thanks, Andy and Kathy. Would you provide a short description of what is considered Integrated Education and Training (IET) programming? Thanks! Leecy
