Career Pathways (Academies) “are a new way of organizing college level occupational training as a sequence of certificates that lead adult learners in attainable steps toward better jobs and a degree or technical diploma. Each step improves the learner’s career and earning opportunities and provides a skill set needed by an industry or industry sector. Industry sectors that are appropriate for pathway development are those that need significant numbers of skilled workers, can provide good jobs, and contribute to the economic growth of the region” (Valentine, J.L. & Pagac A.
