New Reference Tool - Roadmaps

Some of you heard the Career Pathways presentation at the ASPIRE conference – or when the rep from Chemeketa met with us.

One of the most helpful take-aways for me was learning about the Career Roadmaps.

These are pretty straightforward schematics showing how a student can progress from a certificate on up to AA or bachelor’s degree by building on courses already taken.

We’ve printed out the Roadmaps for the programs at PCC and Chemeketa (many more options are available at other community colleges as well.)

I also put a Career pathways overview in the pocket at the front of the binder – which I put on the shelf (under the cabinets) in front of the PCC file box
