Bridges with Purpose: Transforming Adult Education into Career Pipelines
Join the Workforce Wednesday Webinar featuring
presenter Sarah Taylor.
Bridge & ICAPS classes should never exist
simply because there’s a general demand and a box to tick. Without intentional
design and strong employer partnerships, students risk falling into the abyss
of applicant pools, being qualified yet disconnected from real opportunities.
This session showcases how one program reimagines bridge classes as the first
step in a comprehensive pipeline that leads to ICAPS and ultimately to
sustainable employment. Through multimodal career training, personalized career
navigation, and dedicated success coach support, learners receive guidance at
every stage of their journey. A robust workforce development strategy ensures
employers are actively engaged from classroom to career, creating a model that
meets students where they are and equips them for long-term success.
