  1. The Providence Pathways to Prosperity Project (PPPP) Office of Career and Technical Education Luke Driver, Director Sharon Contreras, Chief Academic Officer

  2. Presentation Agenda • The National and Global Perspective • The Pathways to Prosperity Report • Post-Secondary Education Credentials (PSEs) • The Concept of Multiple Pathways • PPSD’s Career and Technical Education System • Overview of CTE Pathways • A look at a sample Pathway • Our Vision for the Future • Based in Labor Market Research • Areas for growth

  3. The National and Global Perspective U.S. Secretary of EducationArne Duncan February 2011 Report

  4. The National and Global Perspective Post-Secondary Education (PSE) is necessary to compete in the global economy in 2010 and beyond: • Between 1973 and 2007, we added 63 million jobs • Jobs held by those with no more than a High School education fell by 2 million over this period • Workers with a HS education or less now make up just 41% of workforce, as compared to 72% in 1971 Source: Center on Education and the Workforce, Bill Symonds, Harvard University

  5. On Average, PSE leads to Much Higher Earnings Source: US Bureau of Labor Statistics

  6. The National and Global Perspective “College for All” needs to be broadened to mean a meaningful “Post-High School Education (PSE) credential” for All A meaningful credential can be earned in many ways: • Industry Certifications • Technical Degrees • Community College • Apprenticeships • The Military • Four year college -- Bill Symonds, Harvard University

  7. Multiple Pathways defined: A robust and viable system of public education programs of study that span grades 6 to 16, and prepare students for both post secondary education and their choice of gainful careers.

  8. Multiple Pathways Key Elements: • Pathways are organized around broad industry sectors (e.g., specialty trades, biomedical & health science, engineering, military, or digital media), • Pathways integrate college-prep academics with career technical coursework using a project-based approach, • Pathways include a work-based learning component that brings additional relevance and connection to the pathway learning experience.

  9. Post Secondary Credential(s) Gainful Employed in Career of Choice

  21. Largest pools of RI jobs projected in 2018 • Allied Heath Care: 65,010 • Educational Services: 51,000 • Food Services: 42,000 • Scientific / Technical: 27,975 • Administrative Services: 25,000 • Specialty Trades: 14,950 - Source: RI Department of Labor and Training

  22. 3 Growth Areas for CTE Pathways • Allied Health Care / STEM • Ambulatory Health Care Services • Hospitals • Nursing and Residential Care • Social Assistance • Educational Services • Early Childhood to Post-Secondary • Scientific and Technical Services / STEM • Specialized Design, Architectural, Engineering, Veterinary • Computer Information Technology /STEM • Internet-Related Services

  23. Growth Areas for CTE Pathways • Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math – Related Services • Engineering / Robotics / Aerospace • Advanced Manufacturing / Bio-Manufacturing • Homeland and Internet Security /Counter-Terrorism • Advanced Medicine • Health Care • Business Entrepreneurship, Management, and Services

  24. Next Steps • Align CTE programming and pathways to labor market growth areas • Expand programming to increase student participation • Add Career Academies under additional Career Clusters in comprehensive high schools • Amend the Graduation Policy • Link pathways, grades 7-12 • Reorganize School-Based Coordinator positions

  25. Next Steps • Link to the Business Sector--full partners in the Pathways system • Organize an associated 501 (c) 3 non-profit to funnel business sector resources to CTE programs • Negotiate Real Opportunities for Work-based Learning and Jobs

  26. Our Vision for the Future Globally Competitive and High Performing “The need to re-imagine and remake career and technical education is urgent. CTE has an enormous, if often overlooked impact on students, school systems, and our ability to prosper as a nation.” -- Arne Duncan February 2, 2011
