Pathways align and articulate with both postsecondary and business partners. Sequential curriculum aligns with industry and competencies. GSPP Pathways have articulation from high school to postsecondary education and training aligned with the workforce development needs of their regional economy.

Outcome 7: Collaboratively Built Pathways

Pathways establish comprehensive and timely collaboration with other Local Educational Agencies (LEAs), postsecondary partners, local and regional employers and other relevant community interest holders to build relevant, articulated and informed pathways.

Outcome 8: Sustain GSPP Work

Partners from across the regional ecosystem engage in the design and implementation of local pathways to ensure that they successfully bridge K–12, higher education, and the labor market. Pathways are reverse mapped from industry to postsecondary to K–12 to ensure that students develop the skills and competencies they need to succeed in careers. Pathways leverage available resources or in-kind contributions from public, private and philanthropic sources to sustain the ongoing operation. As applicable LEAs outline how GSPP creates cohesion with other state funded pathway programs.
