Purpose   

Establish pipelines for undereducated, underemployed youth and young adults (18-30) who have dropped out of school or lack basic skills needed to complete a certificate or degree. The pipelines offer preparation for career technical training in various high demand CTE industry sectors, while continuing to provide academic preparation in a real world, experiential learning context.  Projects have a regional focus and use a phased or sequenced approach that is responsive to local and regional labor market demands. Projects include broad-based advisory committees made up of community college districts, business and industry representatives, local Workforce Investment Boards, Regional Occupation Centers and Programs (ROCP), Adult Education Programs and labor organizations.

Benefits 
  • Program leverages other state agency resources (e.g., Workforce Investment Boards [WIB]).
  • Meets local, regional, statewide and national needs of employment.
  • Increases the likelihood of student matriculating to 4-year institutions.
