| Solicitation Profile |
The purpose of the Career Pathways III (CP III) RFP is to secure the services of eligible organizations that can assist OTDA in addressing the employment and training needs of eligible individuals age 16 and up. The CP III program links educational and occupational training to subsequent employment through a continuum of educational programs combined with integrated support services to enable eligible participants to advance over time both to higher levels of education and to higher wage jobs in targeted occupational sectors. Providers will strive to place all participants in high growth/high demand employment sectors, and offer participants a clear and reliable course of action for building skills to progress in their careers. Career Pathways “Roadmaps” will be organized as a series of steps that lead participants toward job placement and increased earnings opportunities by providing industry-recognized credentials, certificates, and/or licensures. The industry sectors that are appropriate for pathway development will be identified locally, and must include those that need skilled workers and that are vital to the economic health of the region.
Career Pathways services take on an added importance for young adults, helping them acquire the skills necessary for future workplace success. Research has found that one of the most important approaches to reducing pregnancies and/or promoting good parenting is to improve education and career opportunities, and instill a belief in a successful future. Young people who have education, work-related skills, employment goals and job opportunities may be less likely to engage in high-risk behaviors than those who lack these skills and supports. CP III will provide program participants with education, job skills, and employment opportunities to reduce teen and unplanned pregnancies and promote financial stability, positive parenting and strong communities.
