Abstract
As Career Pathways have taken hold across the nation with Wisconsin as one of the leaders, it seemed logical to create a tool to encourage reflection on career pathways that serve our student customers and our employer customers.
The Career Pathway Assessment Tool (CPAT) has been developed to help individual colleges, if they choose, build new pathways as well as evaluate their current pathways. The tool is organized into ten essential elements with multiple sub-elements. You have opportunity to examine each sub-element by noting the current status, assessing your current state and finally identifying next steps for enhancement.
As you work through the CPAT, you will see two categories of sub-elements: program-level and college-level. Working through both program and college level sub-elements concurrently will allow for a comprehensive assessment when evaluating your career pathways.
When building a team at your college, we encourage you to find the best person/persons to use the tool as it will be different college to college. Consider a cross-functional team; including members from Student Services and Content and Learning in order to build the most robust pathway possible. Also include the colleges Career Pathway and Career Prep Coordinators, as well as instructors and deans.
One final suggestion; always keep the student-customer and employer-customer foremost as you use the tool.
