Minnesota's Pathways

Minnesota's Pathways program is a set of structured routes designed to help students and workers develop skills for in-demand careers. It connects education and training with real-world job opportunities in sectors like healthcare, technology, and manufacturing. The goal is to provide clear, achievable pathways from education to employment, often involving a combination of high school education, community college, apprenticeships, or training programs. This approach aims to improve workforce readiness, increase economic opportunity, and meet the needs of Minnesota’s evolving economy by aligning educational efforts with workplace demands.
