Stories, College & Career Readiness

Productive, rewarding internships have much in common with work experiences that attract, retain, and engage people in careers to the benefit of employers and entire industries. This framework builds on insights from hundreds of Linked Learning pathways that feature work-based learning in partnership with local employers.

Curriculum & Instruction, Work-Based Learning

Pursuing Linked Learning Certification is the best way to understand, achieve, and maintain the levels of pathway quality research links with positive student outcomes: more credits earned, increased graduation rates and college enrollment, work-ready skills and mindsets, equity across demographics.

Communications, Certification

Linked Learning pathways engage and empower young people by integrating rigorous academics with relevant, career-connected learning. To support this aim, the Labor Market Index puts educators and students in touch with up-to-date workforce trends so they can plan for successful pathways and careers.

Communications, Workforce Development

Most pathway teams who pursue Linked Learning Gold Certification agree: The process of getting there is itself incredibly valuable. On the journey they learn and grow, find support and fresh energy—and build enthusiasm for developing increasingly relevant, high-quality learning experiences for their students.

Teachers, school and district leaders, and their community partners are amazing problem solvers, especially when they can innovate together. The Alliance is actively cultivating that opportunity with our professional development portfolio. Building on 15+ years of experience, research, and relationships across systems and sectors, the Alliance offers training, tools, and connections to help K–12 educators take practice to the next level.
