Webinar: Pathways to Success! Practical Career Pathways Strategies for Today’s Adult Education Program

Presented by: Jeffrey Fantine

Tuesday, February 10, 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM ET

12:00-1:30 PM PT, 1:00-2:30 PM MT, 2:00-3:30 PM CT, 3:00-4:30 PM ET

Description: 
Are you overwhelmed by all the information that has come out in recent years on what career pathways are and how to implement career pathways in your program?

Are you struggling with how to make all this information practical and relevant to your program with the resources that are available?

Are you confused about what actually constitutes delivering comprehensive career pathways as a service delivery approach?

Are you worried that in light of WIOA and the requirement of career pathways, that 
your program will not be ready for or have the capacity to do what will be necessary under this new law?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, this webinar is for you!

This presentation will be devoted to how to conceptualize a career pathways service model and practical strategies designed to help you foster environments that promote rigor, relationships and relevance in the college and career readiness driven program.

Participants will come away with an understanding of what it takes to honor career pathways while addressing the complex learning needs of the students we serve.
