Career Connect Washington funds Program Builders to create and scale career connected learning programs, in both academic and work-based settings, for young people ages 5-30.

Program Builders create meaningful experiences on the career connected learning continuum, Career Explore, Prep, and Launch, that help young people build the knowledge and skills they need to pursue college and careers.

Program Builders can be employers; educators; non-profits; job training, skill center, and community-based organizations; and others: what they have in common is their work to bridge and build connections between industry and the education system.

Add your existing career connected learning program to our Directory

The CCW Program Directory is an online, searchable database that helps young people and their supporters — families, educators, community partners, and others — find career connected learning experiences near where they live. The Directory also offers information on support resources that reduce the barriers that young people face to participate in these experiences, from financial aid and transportation, to housing and childcare.
