States and School Systems Can Act Now to Dismantle Silos Between High School, College, and Career — from crpe.org by Georgia Heyward, Sarah McCann, & Betheny Gross | May 2021
We offer four ways states can engage K–12:
- Invest in virtual platforms that support college and career navigation.
- Incentivize bold experimentation with hybrid learning to design new models that blend school and workplace learning or connect with postsecondary microcredentials.
- Step in to encourage and regulate high-quality, postsecondary microcredentials that stack toward associate and bachelor degrees.
- Combine policy with technical assistance to help districts credit out-of-school learning.
