Pathmakers: Stories of College, Career,  & Everything in Between Coming Soon!

For decades, the educational narrative told students there was only one path to a successful life. Not anymore. Welcome to Pathmakers: Stories of College, Career, and Everything in Between, created by the Maryland State Department of Education. We will be showcasing the massive, systemic transformation of College &amp; Career Pathways in Maryland. Hosted by Chuck Wallace, this series dives deep into how the state is breaking down the traditional walls between core academics, postsecondary education, and the workforce. We are moving beyond outdated silos to build a modern, flexible system where every student has the agency to choose their own adventure, whether that leads to a university, a registered apprenticeship, or directly into a high-wage, in-demand career. You will discover how Maryland is aligning classroom standards with real-world employer needs, ensuring that every student, no matter their zip code, graduates with a competitive advantage and a clear sense of purpose. Whether you are an educator rethinking the learning paradigm, an industry leader looking to build a local talent pipeline, or a parent navigating the modern skills-based economy for your child, this podcast is your guide. Subscribe to Pathmakers today, and join us as we chart a new path for every learner.
