It has been generally accepted that:

“A career pathway is a combination of education and training.

“This is organized in a series of manageable steps leading to employment opportunities in growing occupations.

“GOAL: Encourage re-entrants and staff to think of education and work experience received while incarcerated as beneficial to gaining employment at release.
GOAL: Ensure inmates are “job ready” at any step of incarceration.”
