ETC School-to-Workforce Symposium
Connect the school-to-workforce ecosystem.
Hosted by the Ed-Tech Collaboratory (ETC), the Symposium will bring together state education leaders, philanthropic partners, standards and technology organizations, and other key partners working across the school-to-workforce ecosystem.
The morning will introduce and explore the emerging ETC School-to-Workforce Strategy—a shared approach to connecting the data, standards, infrastructure, tools, and partnerships needed to help states better connect K–12 education, postsecondary pathways, credentials, and workforce opportunities. Participants will build a shared understanding of the strategy, explore where their organizations fit, identify opportunities for collaboration, and provide input that will help shape the work ahead.
About ETC
Collaboration for modern state data ecosystems.
The Ed-Tech Collaboratory (ETC) is a collaborative movement across state departments of education, working together to drive impactful design of state education data ecosystems. By facilitating collaboration around interoperable tools and data standards, ETC members build replicable models for state data systems—improving student outcomes and operational efficiency along the way.
ETC's work spans key initiatives shaping the future of state data infrastructure: mapping the journey from education to workforce, strengthening data governance, navigating AI and emerging technologies, and helping states connect teachers with high-quality, standards-aligned instructional content.
If you're looking to modernize your state's data ecosystem and connect with peers tackling the same challenges, ETC is where that work happens.
