We are excited to share that Ohio has been awarded a $9 million federal Career
Pathways Exploration Grant to expand career exploration and strengthen connections among students, real-world learning, and career pathways.
The grant will build on Ohio’s newly revised Career Connections Framework and
support schools and districts in strengthening career exploration, planning, advising,
partnerships, and student experiences across Awareness, Exploration, Preparation, and participation.
The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce has now released the competitive
Request for Applications (RFA). Eligible LEAs may apply for subgrant funding through the Career Pathways Exploration Grant to serve as pilot sites implementing Ohio’s Career Connections Framework.
