Written for education leaders at all levels, this resource shows how to:

1. design an innovative Pathways approach to career readiness that empowers students as informed decision makers;
2. integrate career training into curriculum through a network of local community partners;
3. design a continuum of learning that empowers your students to become independent decision-makers;
4. consistently support student voice and choice through all year levels;
5. develop an approach to career readiness that recognises the value of tertiary education, the workplace and the new “gold collar” jobs, including technology and the skilled trades;

This book examines what matters most for all students in realising their potential and having personal choice and a voice in their Pathway to becoming the literate graduates that they have a right to become.
