Southwest Tech Prep is thrilled to announce that the Southwest Regional Center, with Cincinnati State as its fiscal agent, will continue work in the Southwest Region as the newly formed Career Pathway Support Network.

The grant funding will establish Career Pathway Support Networks in place of existing Tech Prep Regional Centers. These new networks will build on the foundation of the Tech Prep model but take a broader approach – increasing access to and participation in career-technical education for middle grades (7-10), ensuring all students receive high-quality career advising and mentoring, and aligning more closely with regional workforce needs through partnerships between schools and districts, institutions of higher education, and local employers.
