Feedback Survey

Designed to transform the college and career pathways of Indiana’s disengaged high school students, the Pathways to Careers and Postsecondary (P-CAP) model delivers a new framework for improving the postsecondary outcomes of students who enter high school as some of the least likely to graduate, yet thrive when engaged in non-traditional learning and pathway experiences. Within the P-CAP strategies, high schools design local P-CAP programs focused on building community, providing hands-on integrated coursework, blending career and postsecondary pathways, and delivering high-quality work-based learning (WBL).

Join this session to learn about the P-CAP model and the work of 15 P-CAP Network partner schools. Presenters will provide an overview of P-CAP strategies, discuss the relationship between P-CAP and Early College programs, and take a deep dive into work-based learning. As a cornerstone of the P-CAP model, work-based learning begins in 9th grade and builds sustained relationships between students and their industry partners.
