Cleveland’s Collective Impact Approach to Career Pathways

Mar 5, 2025

4:00pm – 5:00pm CT

Using a prescribed collective impact approach, Greater Cleveland Career Consortium (GCCC) is aligning the education and workforce systems by convening hundreds of cross-sector partners to implement a 6-12 grade career exploration and readiness curriculum. GCCC youth-serving nonprofit, education, and employer partners will detail our evolution from a community-wide planning process to implementation at scale, serving 30,000 students in 11 low-income school districts. Panelists will discuss building a regional career pathway network through the intersection of systems change and program rollout.

This is an accredited session for CPE credit.
