For nearly four years now, I’ve written about career education collaborations among the K-12 schools, college and workforce systems, including the Glendale and Burbank school districts, Glendale Community College and CSU Northridge. I’ve applauded successes like Clark Magnet High School’s award-winning environmental science programs and GCC’s Uniquely Abled Project that trains individuals on the autism spectrum to enter high-paying careers as computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine operators. I’ve highlighted the high school students who’ve spent their summers on school construction sites, gaining exposure to the variety of careers possible in the construction industry.
