Denver, Colorado, is one of the six sites selected to participate in the "New Skills ready network." This five-year initiative, launched by JPMorgan Chase & Co. in 2020, aims to improve student completion of high-quality career pathways. In the first year of the initiative, the Denver, Colorado, team -- working under the name New Skills Ready Initiative (NSRI) -- began developing strategies for data sharing among secondary and postsecondary systems, mapping their shared career pathways, and working on a model for co-advising. The state of Colorado, alongside Denver, also prioritized the need for improved career planning and further strengthening its workforce development system. This snapshot provides a summary of the two major priorities of Denver, Colorado's "New Skills ready network" team: (1) building a shared data framework to better measure the impact of career pathways; and (2) mapping career pathways to ease learner transitions.
