Are your community’s education and workforce efforts adding up to real opportunity? This seven-question pulse check is designed for leaders working to strengthen career pathways, close skill gaps, and connect job seekers to credentials, employment, and economic mobility.
Your Community Has Significant Room to Grow
Your community may be in the early stages of building aligned pathways, but that also means there is a clear opportunity to create stronger connections among education, workforce, and industry partners. Your responses suggest that learners may be encountering disconnected systems, inconsistent career guidance, limited supports, or unclear routes from training to employment. The next step is to establish a shared framework, identify the most important gaps, and bring partners together around common goals. The Pathways to Success Toolkit can help your community begin that work with a practical, step-by-step approach.

Your Community Is Building, But Gaps Remain
Your community has important pieces in place, but they may not yet function as a coordinated, learner-centered system. Some partners, programs, or funding streams may be working well on their own, while gaps remain in alignment, access, employer engagement, or shared outcomes. The priority now is to connect promising efforts into a more seamless pathway so learners can move from education and training into credentials, employment, and economic mobility. The Pathways to Success Toolkit can help turn individual efforts into a more coordinated community strategy.

Your Community Is on the Right Path
Your community is making meaningful progress toward a more aligned, learner-centered pathways system. Partnerships, programs, and shared goals are beginning to work together, but opportunities remain to strengthen coordination, scale what works, and use data to close remaining gaps. The Pathways to Success Toolkit can help your community build on that momentum and turn promising efforts into sustained regional impact.

Your Community Is a Model Worth Strengthening
Your community is doing many things right. But even high-performing systems have blind spots, and the expansion of Workforce Pell Grants opens new opportunities to reach more learners and braid more funding. The Pathways to Success Toolkit can help you go further, document your model, and share it with others.
