Your future starts now. Career Connected Learning (CCL) gives students the opportunity to explore careers, build professional skills, earn industry-recognized credentials, and gain real-world experience while still in high school.

Through career-related activities and hands-on learning experiences, you can discover career pathways that match your interests and goals. As you enter your junior and senior years, eligible students may have the opportunity to participate in Career Experience Pathways, connecting directly with local employer partners through internships and apprenticeship opportunities.

These employer-sponsored work-based learning experiences allow you to apply what you're learning in the classroom, develop valuable workplace skills, build your professional network, and earn high school credit for completed work hours. Whether you're planning to enter the workforce, pursue an apprenticeship, attend college, or explore other postsecondary options, Career Experience Pathways can help you gain a competitive advantage and make informed decisions about your future.

Participation is competitive and requires students to meet eligibility requirements, complete an application process, and be selected by an employer partner. Opportunities vary based on industry demand and available employer partnerships.
