Regions

For the purposes of developing and disseminating regional career pathways, Wisconsin is divided into seven regions. A region is defined by the geographic boundaries of the local regional economic development organization (REDO). Regional career pathway collaborative groups consist of representation from employers, workforce and economic development organizations, higher education, districts, and Cooperative Educational Service Agencies (CESAs).

A collaborative addresses many aspects of selecting, building, and evaluating high-skill, in-demand regional career pathways in high schools. Leveraging the collective resources of a region provides districts and students with greater access to career pathways.

In the process, a collaborative also acts as an advisory group to identify and overcome barriers that may prevent students from accessing a pathway (e.g., college curriculum that is not aligned with the career pathway).
