JobsFirstNYC, CARA (College Access: Research & Action), and Shared Lane Services partner to build career pathways in schools. Career pathways are an integrated approach designed to help students strengthen their career awareness, build professional skills through work-based learning experiences, develop clear postsecondary and career plans, persist in and experience success in postsecondary education and training, and launch fulfilling careers.
The Ways to Get Started series provides tangible steps that school leaders, teachers, and counselors can take to embed career-connected learning into the school day by taking early, fundamental steps. This series provides examples from New York City schools that JobsFirstNYC has supported to provide career exploration and development for their students.
