Postsecondary Pathways with Career EdVantage
“Postsecondary” simply means “after high school.” So, what comes next for Career EdVantage students?
With support from their Career Coach, students identify the path best aligned with their career goals, abilities, and interests. After high school, students typically pursue one of two options: enrolling at Iowa Western Community College (IWCC) for further education and training, or entering the workforce in full-time employment.
