Quad County Career Pathways Consortium

The Quad County Career Pathways Consortium (QCCPC) is an education-to-workforce partnership of several local education districts and organizations whose membership is based on the need to create effective sustainable systems improving students’ matriculation, persistence, completion and career placement.

The consortium is made up of Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ and , , , and school districts.

Career Pathways Program

The Career Pathways program provides pre-collegiate students with career and technical training. Articulation agreements—formal transfer agreements between Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ and local school districts—give students who successfully complete Career Pathway/CTE Academies at the secondary level eligibility for college credit or clock hours at the post-secondary level.

Career Pathways credit is valid for 36 months following high school graduation. To receive college credit, schedule an appointment with an Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ Success Coach or an Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ advisor to indicate completion of a Career Pathways Academy and to meet all of the Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ admissions requirements. If courses articulate toward your Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ degree or certificate program, credit will be verified and applied to your student record. This is a one-time, permanent evaluation. Consult with your Î÷¹ÏÊÓƵ advisor for details.

Through QCCPC efforts, academic, career and technical content can be made more relevant, rigorous and better aligned with the skills demanded by the labor market. Students can obtain college credit for coursework completed in high school, apprenticeships, or industry-based training through local articulation agreements. The partnerships, including that with the , underscore the commitment and support of establishing career pathway oriented curriculum within local secondary, post-secondary and community organizations.
