NISOD International Conference on Teaching and Leadership Excellence May 26, 2008 Transitions – Why Critical Today For most Americans, education and training through and beyond high school is now a necessary condition (not just the most advantageous or desirable route) for developing skills required by most well-paying jobs. Source: Patrick M. Callan, President National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education Because… • Remediation Rates • Dropout Rates • Secondary and Postsecondary Disconnect • Wasted Senior Year • Postsecondary Persistence • Employer Dissatisfaction Transition Barriers • Students, parents, and K-12 educators get conflicting and vague messages about what students need to know to enter and succeed in college. (Bridge found that high school assessments often stress different knowledge and skills than do college entrance and placement requirements.) The Bridge Project Stanford University Transition Barriers • Coursework between high school and college is not connected. • Students graduate from high school under one set of standards and three months later are required to meet a whole new set of standards in college. The Bridge Project Stanford University Transition Barriers • Current data systems are not equipped to address students’ needs across systems. • No one is held accountable for issues related to student transitions from high school to college. The Bridge Project Stanford University Bridge Study Summary While educators and policymakers share the common goal of improving student performance, they often act in isolation; thus, efforts are sometimes conflicting or duplicated, and often certain needs are never addressed. The Bridge Project Stanford University CAREER CLUSTERS (The What) “An organizing tool defining CTE using 16 broad clusters of occupations and 81 pathways with validated standards that ensure opportunities for all students regardless of their career goals and interests.” 16 Career Clusters Career Pathways by Career Cluster CAREER PATHWAYS BY CAREER CLUSTER CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS AGRICULTURE AND NATURAL RESOURCES Power, Structural, and Technical Systems National Resource Systems Agribusiness Systems Environmental Service Systems Plant Systems Animal Systems Food Products and Processing Systems ARCHITECTURE AND CONSTRUCTION Design/Pre-Construction Construction Maintenance/Operations ARTS/AV TECHNOLOGY AND COMMUNICATIONS Visual Arts Performing Arts Journalism and Broadcasting Audio and Video Technology and Film Printing Technologies Telecommunication Technologies BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION Human Resources Management Business Financial Management & Accounting Marketing Administration and Information Support Business Analysis HOSPITALITY AND TOURISM Restaurants and Food and Beverage Service Recreation, Amusements, and Attractions Travel and Tourism Lodging HUMAN SERVICES Counseling and Mental Health Services Family and Community Services Personal Care Services Consumer Services Early Childhood Development INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Network Systems Programming and Software Development Interactive Media Information Support and Services SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, AND MATHEMATICS Science and Math Engineering and Technology CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS CAREER CLUSTER PATHWAYS EDUCATION AND TRAINING Teaching and Training Professional Support Services Administration and Administrative Support FINANCE Business Financial Management Banking and Related Services Financial and Investment Planning Insurance Services GOVERNMENT AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION National Security Foreign Service Planning Revenue and Taxation Regulation Public Management and Administration • Health Science – – – – – Therapeutic Services Diagnostic Services Health Informatics Support Services Biotechnology Research and Development HEALTH SCIENCE Therapeutic Services Diagnostic Services Health Informatics Support Services Biotechnology Research and Development LAW, PUBLIC SAFETY, AND SECURITY Legal Services Emergency and Fire Management Services Correction Services Law Enforcement Services Security and Protective Services MANUFACTURING Production Manufacturing Production Process Development Maintenance, Installation, and Repair Quality Assurance Logistics and Inventory Control Health Safety and Environmental Assurance MARKETING, SALES, AND SERVICE Marketing Information Management & Research Marketing Communications and Promotion Professional Sales and Marketing Management and Entrepreneurship Buying and Merchandising E-Marketing Distribution and Logistics TRANSPORTATION, DISTRIBUTION & LOGISTICS Warehousing & Distribution Center Operations Logistics Planning and Management Services Facility and Mobile Equipment Maintenance Transportation Operations Transportation System Infrastructure Health Safety Management\ Sales and Services • Manufacturing – Production – Manufacturing Production Process Development – Maintenance, Installation, and Repair – Quality Assurance – Logistics and Inventory Control – Health Safety and Environmental Assurance Cluster Standards Foundation Standards: Essential for all occupations within a cluster and are organized around ten areas.

College and Career Transitions Initiative (CCTI) Cooperative Agreement between U.S. Department of Education Office of Vocational and Adult Education and The League for Innovation in the Community College Consortium Purpose of CCTI CCTI will contribute to strengthening the role of community and technical colleges in • Easing student transitions between secondary and postsecondary education as well as transitions to employment, and • Improving academic performance at both the secondary and postsecondary levels. 2005-06 CCTI Site Partnerships 1-Miami Dade College 6-Corning Com.

OUTCOME #5 Increase successful entry into employment or further education Are Students Prepared? • College instructors estimate that 42% of their students are not adequately prepared. • Employers estimate that 39% of high school graduates who have no further education are not prepared for their current job and that 45% are under prepared for advancement. Source: “Rising to the Challenge: Are High School graduates prepared for college and work?”; Achieve, Inc., 2005 (The How) A Career Pathway is a coherent, articulated sequence of rigorous academic and career courses, commencing in the ninth grade and leading to an associate degree, and/or an industry-recognized certificate or licensure, and/or a baccalaureate degree and beyond. A Career Pathway is developed, implemented, and maintained in partnership among secondary and postsecondary education, business, and employers. Career Pathways are available to all students, including adult learners, and are designed to lead to rewarding careers. Perkins IV What is a Program of Study/Pathway? 1. 2. 3. 4. Incorporate and align secondary and postsecondary education Include academic & CTE content in a coordinated, non-duplicative progression of courses May include the opportunity for secondary students to acquire postsecondary credits Lead to an industry-recognized credential or certificate at the postsecondary level, or an associate or baccalaureate degree CCTI Career Pathways Template Rigorous Academics CTE for all Dual Enrollment Early Assessment in H.S.
