Career-connected learning is a growing and proven model of career readiness. By creating a culture of opportunities that connect learning to careers, educators can establish a sustainable future that closes the equity gap, improves performance, and enhances community collaboration.
NS4ed supports a career-connected learning model that combines career exploration, academic learning, and awareness of high-value careers for all levels.
