Explore Advanced Career (AC) pathway programs – new types of career-technical curricula that better prepare high school students for more options. AC pathway programs provide a rigorous and relevant blend of technical and academic skills in authentic projects that engage students in preparing for postsecondary options and careers. High Schools That Work, a part of the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), is developing a large number of intensely challenging and highly relevant AC programs in partnership with states and industry.

We invite you to join us in a series of education webinars free to learn more about the eight AC pathway programs that are ready for schools to adopt in Fall 2014. Each webinar will take about an hour, including time for questions.

Which of the following AC programs might strengthen your portfolio of career-tech programs? Which ones best fit the needs of your students and community? We invite you to register for one or all!
