Abstract Description :

By 2027 (in just 2 years), 70% of jobs will require education or training beyond high school. And only 2 out of 10 students feel prepared for the workforce. College and career readiness programs like dual enrollment and career technical education are proven solutions to put students on a pathway to college and to in-demand and high-paying careers. But, how do we increase access to these initiatives? The answer is through digital learning solutions that can be administered in high schools to meet students where they are at.
