• In 2014, College CTE courses taken
by HS students - a 112% increase in
headcount and 116% increase in
college credit hours over the
baseline year (2012)

Kansas Workforce Needs
1. Higher percentage of post-secondary education
completers
(most of the “new” jobs will require a credential and/or
an Associate’s degree)
2. Higher skilled employees
Here’s what we’re
facing…
Current % of Post-secondary
completers in Kansas
52%
Post-secondary completion = Credential through Advanced degree

Think – Pair - Share
What are some of the reasons over half of our
students who start in post-secondary don’t
complete a degree?
What can we do in secondary education to
cause more students to complete a postsecondary degree?
College and Career Ready in
Kansas
College and Career Ready means an individual
has the academic preparation, cognitive
preparation, technical skills, and employability
skills to be successful in postsecondary
education, in the attainment of an industry
recognized certification or in the workforce,
without the need for remediation.
Closing the Gap
Focus on Career Awareness & Guidance and
CTE Pathways to help more students complete
a post-secondary credential or degree
Review Pathway Standards to ensure they
are relevant, rigorous, and reflective of
current business/industry standards
