Vocational Training: State Career Program Directories

Career-Connected Learning Pathways Act of 2026

Legislative Progress

House
Senate
President
Law

Key Points

  • This bill allows states to create easy-to-use websites where students and families can look up vocational training and career programs. These directories would be updated at least once a year to keep information current.
  • People could search for programs by their local school district, the type of job they want, or the specific certificate they hope to earn. This makes it easier to find training for careers like nursing, welding, or computer coding.
  • Each listing would show exactly which classes to take, if there are opportunities for internships or hands-on learning, and whether the program actually prepares students for jobs that are currently hiring in their area.
  • By organizing this information in one place, the bill aims to help students make better choices about their education and ensure that schools are teaching skills that local businesses actually need.
