18. A CTE Pathway Is… A CTE Career Field Pathway is a coherent, articulated sequence of rigorous academic and career/technical courses, commencing in the ninth grade and leading to an associate degree, baccalaureate degree and beyond, an industry recognized certificate, and/or licensure. The 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 lead to rewarding careers.

19. What Broader Pathways Offer Promote more opportunities for students. Encourage breadth of programming beyond specializations. Encourage depth of programming to include possibilities for specialization. Support community as well as student interests.

A Pathway Must: 1.Be associated with sector(s) within an industry or encompass a function that crosses industry sectors. 2.The scope of a pathway may be influenced by size and number of opportunities in the related industry and available college programs. 3.Provide opportunities to prepare for a range of careers. a.multiple employment opportunities after high school. b.opportunities for students to enter and succeed in postsecondary and continuing education programs. 4.Prepare students to transfer skills required for employment in the range of occupations aligned to the pathway. 5.Be structured so that students have the opportunity to learn skills across the pathway as well as in specialized areas.
