    Unlocking Economic Prosperity: Career Navigation in a Time of Rapid Change
    (Malcolm Wiener Center for Social Policy, 2023-11) Fuller, Joseph; Mckittrick, Kerry; Seibel, Sherry; Wilson, James; Dash, Vasundhara; Epstein, Alexandra
    Pathways to economic opportunity are broken in the United States, disproportionately affecting Black, Latinx, and Indigenous individuals and those from low-income backgrounds. Disrupting long-standing occupational segregation and improving outcomes for all will require a system of career navigation that gives all individuals economic agency and opportunity. Unlocking Economic Prosperity: Career Navigation in a Time of Rapid Change dissects the evidence and practice of career navigation and sets an agenda for a more equitable career navigation ecosystem. Based on an extensive literature review and consultation with experts and frontline workers, we identify the drivers of career navigation success and lay out core design principles and recommendations for the future. At a time of rapid technological transformation, policymakers, employers, educators, intermediaries, and philanthropies must collaborate to build a system of supports and pathways that provide all individuals with the information, skills, social capital, resources, and social structures they need to advance.

    Delivering on the Degree: The College-to-Jobs Playbook
    (Malcolm Wiener Center for Social Policy, 2023-04) Deming, David; Fuller, Joseph; Lipson, Rachel; Mckittrick, Kerry; Epstein, Alexandra; Catalfamo, Emma
    In this playbook, we provide a framework to help college better deliver on the American Dream. We create a coherent, comprehensive taxonomy of the landscape of college-to-jobs programs and policies through a review of the existing academic research according to a set of common criteria. With a focus on public two-year and four-year colleges, Minority Serving Institutions and Historically Black Colleges and Universities, we identify 13 “interventions” within the college ecosystem that could be used to ease the transition into good jobs in the workforce.
