Employment (CDLE) aspires to advance
economic opportunities for all
Coloradans. Committed to developing
and nurturing the state's workforce, the
agency wants all residents to have
access to the education and training
necessary to keep Colorado thriving .
Pathful was the perfect fit to help the
CDLE reach these goals
How we found success:
Impact:
Pathful has extended the reach of
Workforce Development Programs
across the state, serving over 19,500
individuals of all ages, including those in
rural and underserved areas. Pathful
has transformed how the CDLE's
Workforce Development Programs help
Coloradans remain competitive and
future-ready in a fast-changing
climate. Clients are able to dive deep
and explore a potential career's
education requirements, payscale, and
future outlook. To take it a step further,
clients can consult current, integrated
labor market information not just by
career, but by location.
How they use Pathful:
The partnership between Pathful’s CSM and
the CDLE Team’s points of contact opened
the door to collaboration with other
departments across the state including the
Division of Vocational Rehab, Connecting
Colorado, the Department of Education,
and the Department of Corrections. These
partnerships led to an efficient and
effective implementation of Pathful across
the CDLE’s many branches, providing
Colordans of all ages access to career
evaluation, education and training.
The CDLE, WIOA Career Specialists,
transition staff and the Colorado
Department of Corrections all use Pathful
to support a diverse range of individuals
at all stages of their career journey. This
includes using the Pathful assessment
tools to help them determine their
interests and set career goals. Through
Pathful’s extensive video library , they
can explore a wide variety of careers and
trades and brush up on soft skills with our
Life skills video content. Pathful’s
Workforce readiness lessons and
activities, post secondary exploration
and financial literacy tools also serve as
excellent preparation for the New
teacher Externship program and the
Colorado Governor's Summer Job Hunt
program.
