From Classrooms to Careers: Preparing Students for a Changing Workforce

What You’ll Learn

Too many students graduate without the skills, experiences, or support to confidently pursue fulfilling, high-wage careers. While many districts offer Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs, few have a cohesive, systemwide strategy to ensure all students access career-connected learning from PK–12.

In this webinar, co-hosted by TNTP and EdWeek, leaders from Alton High School (IL) and TNTP will share how they updated their CTE programs through a community-driven process. This partnership led to the creation of five STEM pathways aligned with local industry needs and student interests—positioning every student to explore careers, gain hands-on experience, and graduate ready for the future.

Leave this session with practical ideas, new inspiration, and tools to start your own school or systemwide approach to career-connected learning.
