What We Do
STC partners with schools to deliver engaging Education to Employment (e2e) Pathway® content that connects teachers and students to the world of work. Our programs strengthen and expand the capacity of schools and teachers to, prepare historically marginalized students for careers or college and support their students on the e2e pathway. All of our programming builds direct connections between students, educators and volunteers from a variety of professional fields.
Signature Programs
Design Challenge & Fellows
Teams of middle or high school students engage in design thinking challenges to solve local community problems.
Professional Learning Initiatives
K-12 Teachers & Leaders
Cohorts of educators and leaders from schools meet regularly to promote innovation and drive continuous improvement for their students.
Bridging the e2e Gap
High school students explore career pathways and the job search process, develop professional communication skills, simulate the job search process, and network with professional volunteers in a variety of industries locally and nationally.
Real-World Learning Rubric
Our Real-World Learning (RWL) Rubric, published in 2017, serves as a guide to help K-12 schools reflect, set goals, and drive improvements around RWL, which is “relevant, authentic, hands-on, and connects students to the real world“
“Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning results.” – John Dewey, 1902
