Engagement of Kentucky’s education partners has been continuous under the project agenda of the former KWIB’s WorkSmart Kentucky plan, and is accelerating under the pillars of the NGA Talent Pipeline Academy agenda, with both KCTCS and the CTE unit of KDE serving as core partners in that effort. The priority focus of all workforce partners is on building a work–based learning infrastructure that is employer–defined and seamlessly delivered by an interlocking series of steps that begin early in the education pipeline and continue through careers and lifelong learning.
