Career Pathways

Career Pathways Explored: Stories from Ohio


1.		Career Pathways Explored: Stories from Ohio Length: 10:05 This Career Pathways video is the first in the nation that we are aware of. This video documents the importance of forming partnerships between education, economic, and workforce development organizations to address turning the regional economy around. The video does so by featuring employers, students, and workers in their own voices, discussing the need for Ohioans to continue to upgrade their skills and education to compete in a changing "knowledge economy." We believe this video will be of interest to anyone seeking to revitalize regional economies and create career and education opportunities for low-wage adult learners.
