Sacramento, CA…Governor Gavin Newsom unveiled<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0a first-of-its-kind informational tool to help students better understand their options for education and career planning. The Cradle-to-Career (C2C) Data System links datasets from K-12 and higher education, social service, and workforce entities to unite information from disconnected data across sectors and provide insights previously unavailable. This system will allow the public, educators, researchers, and policymakers to access detailed information on education and career outcomes, workforce trends, and more \u2013 broken down by demographics and region \u2013 to illuminate and address areas of strength and needed growth. By linking data from multiple sources, C2C illuminates gaps and identifies opportunities throughout students\u2019 education experiences so they can ultimately reach their goals for life and careers.<\/p>\n

Why this matters<\/strong><\/p>\n

Access to transparent, verified and centralized information about education and workforce outcomes is needed to understand whether efforts to improve student success are working as intended. Students and families often make decisions about education and career pathways with limited and disconnected information about outcomes. The Student Pathways dashboard addresses this information gap.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my quest to find basic information on college-going rates, outcomes or employment prospects, it felt like trying to find a needle in a haystack because of all the different resources. With this tool, I feel that students like me will have the chance to have everything available at their fingers,\u201d\u00a0said Mike Nguyen, student, University of California Berkeley and Cradle-to-Career Advisory Board Member.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Student Pathways dashboard connects the dots between K-12 education to the state\u2019s public college and earnings information to help users like guidance counselors identify the best education options based on the learners\u2019 needs and goals. The resource combines a series of data visualizations and guiding questions to help users understand how Californians are navigating to and through college.<\/p>\n
