GewertzAs educators push schools to produce high school graduates who are ready
to succeed in college or good jobs, an association of professionals in
career and technical education is trying to influence policy by defining
what it considers to be “career readiness.”
The
definition
,
issued this week by the
Association
for Career and Technical Education, arrives as policymakers try to
delineate the skills and knowledge students need to thrive as they move
into higher education or a rapidly changing work world. A rough
consensus is emerging on a definition of college readiness as the
ability to pass entry-level, credit-bearing courses without remediation.
But the definition of “career ready” generally gets less attention and
is often rolled into the definition of college-readiness.
