Linked Learning students are also more likely to stay in their school district through high school, indicating that they are less likely to transfer or drop out of school. • Linked Learning prepares students for a postsecondary education. Many Linked Learning pathways ensure students successfully complete the necessary a–g coursework for admission to a four-year public university in California. In fact, students were 7.9 percentage points more likely to be on track with a–g requirements at the end of 10th grade. • Momentum is growing to expand the Linked Learning approach across California. The State Linked Learning Pilot Program includes 63 participating school districts and county offices of education. CDE, California Community Colleges and James Irvine Foundation are providing $7 Million for pilot implementation. The state budget also includes $250 million for the California Career Pathways Trust, a grant program incentivizing collaboration between schools and employers to support Linked Learning pathways and provide work-based learning opportunities for students. In 2015, a second round of grants through the California Career Pathways Trust will provide an additional $250 million to district and community college partnerships across the state.
