3 Facts Occupations requiring higher education attainment are projected to grow much faster than those with lower education requirements, with the fastest growth among occupations that require an associate s degree or post-secondary vocational award. Preparing the Workers of Today For the Jobs of Tomorrow, July 2009, Executive Office of the President, Council of Economic Advisers 3

4 Environmental-related occupations, which are expected to experience tremendous growth over the next decade, did not exist in comparable data prior to Preparing the Workers of Today For the Jobs of Tomorrow, July 2009, Executive Office of the President, Council of Economic Advisers 4

5 There are 29 million middle jobs in the United States that pay $35,000 or more on average and don t require a Bachelor s degree. Middle-education jobs are those that require some postsecondary education and training, but do not require a Bachelor s degree. Middle-class earnings are earnings above $35,00 per year and below $95,000 per year. Middle jobs are occupations that require some postsecondary education and training, but not a Bachelor s degree, and have average earnings of $35,000 per year or more. Career and Technical Education: Five Way that Pay, Georgetown University, Center on Education and the Workforce, September

6 The American CTE system is unique, flexible, and responds well to changes in labor-market conditions. CTE uses an applied learning method and teaching of field- and occupation-specific skills. CTE often starts in high school Career exploration for all students Alignment with postsecondary programs and training Encourages persistence to high school graduation 6

7 Employerbased training Associate s Degree CTE Education and Training Postsecondary certificates Industry-based certificates Apprenticeships 7

8 The Harvard study, Pathways to Prosperity (February 2011) states, The message is clear: in 21 st century America, education beyond high school is the passport to the American Dream. But how much and what kind of post-secondary is really needed to prosper in the new American economy? 8

9 Twenty-seven percent of people with post-secondary licenses or certificatescredentials short of an associate s degree-earn more than the average bachelor s degree recipient. These middle skill jobs include Electrician Dental hygienist Construction manager Paralegal Police officer Pathways to Prosperity (February 2011) 9

10 The Harvard study implies that a focus on college readiness alone does not equip young people with all of the skills and abilities they need in the workplace, or to successfully complete the transition from adolescence to adulthood. 10

13 Career Education in California 58 Career Technical Education pathways across 15 industry sectors 450 state-funded California Partnership Academies Other locally supported career academies Assembly Bill 790 Linked Learning Pilot Program 344 local educational agencies receive federal Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Improvement Act funding to support Career Technical Education programs 13

14 Standards Continuum Employer Industry Specific Pathway Standards Industry Sector Anchors (Knowledge and Performance Anchor Standards) Standards for Career Ready Practice 14

15 Standards for Career Ready Practice Adapted from the National Common Career Technical Core Supported by Achieve, Adobe, Council for Chief State Schools Officers, National Association of State Boards of Education, National Career Academy Coalition, and National Council for Agriculture Education, among others. Align with Skills for the 21 st Century Describe the fundamental knowledge and skills needed to be ready for careers AND college Not exclusive to a career pathway, CTE program of study, a particular discipline, or grade level 15

16 Standards for Career Ready Practice Increase in complexity and expectation as student advance through a program of study Are taught and reinforced in all career exploration or career preparation programs, or integrated into core curriculum For ALL students, not just CTE students 16

17 Standards for Career Ready Practice 17

18 Standards for Career Ready Practice 1. Apply appropriate technical skills and academic knowledge 2. Communicate clearly, effectively, and with reason 3. Develop an education and career plan aligned to personal goals 4. Apply technology to enhance productivity 5. Utilize critical thinking to make sense of problems and persevere in solving them 6. Practice personal health and understand financial literacy 18

19 7. Act as a responsible citizen in the workplace and the community 8. Model integrity, ethical leadership, and effective management 9. Work productively in teams while using cultural/global competence 10. Demonstrate creativity and innovation 11. Employ valid and reliable research strategies 12. Understand the environmental, social, and economic impacts of decisions 19

20 Standards for Career Ready Practice Example 3. Develop an education and career plan aligned to personal goals. Career-ready individuals take personal ownership of their own educational and career goals and manage their individual plan to attain these goals. They recognize the value of each step in the educational and experiential process, and that nearly all career paths require ongoing education and experience to adapt to practices, procedures, and expectations of an ever changing work environment. They seek counselors, mentors, and other experts to assist in the planning and execution of education and career plans. 20

21 Alignment to California Standards for Career Ready Practice 21

26 California Career Pathways Trust Intent of AB 86 The intent of the California Career Pathways Trust (CCPT) is to build stronger connections between businesses, California schools, and community colleges to better prepare students for the 21 st century workplace. To achieve this intent, the Legislature appropriated $250 million in the Budget Act for schools, community colleges, and their business partners to create student pathways to careers in high-need, high-wage, and high-growth economic sectors. 26

27 California Career Pathways Trust Intent of AB 86 The CCPT is intended to improve the educational achievement and workplace readiness of California s students by placing a greater emphasis on career-based learning as a central mission of public education in California. CCPT grants will allow partnerships of education and business organizations to establish and expand new and innovative career pathway programs with a particular emphasis on sustainability beyond the period of grant funding. 27

28 California Career Pathways Trust Intent of AB 86 Specifically, the CCPT addresses three pressing issues: 1. High-wage skills gap persistently high unemployment rate and shortage of skilled workers, particularly in STEM-related career fields. 2. Too many high school dropouts almost 25 percent of new grade 9 students will drop out of high school before graduating. 3. Insufficient levels of college and career readiness too many students continue to graduate from high school lacking the academic and technical readiness to succeed in college and careers. 28

29 California Career Pathways Trust State Partners California Department of Education California Community Colleges Chancellor s Office California Workforce Investment Board 29

Collaborative regional or county-wide networks are more likely to build innovative and quality career pathways programs that lead to employment or postsecondary education. 35

36 California Career Pathways Trust Assumptions The CCPT is built on the following evidencebased assumptions and core principles: Work-based educational and training opportunities will enhance the employment prospects of low- and moderateincome individuals.
