Tuesday, September 29, 2026

Cost is shaping how students choose their path after high school. As a result, an increasing number are choosing alternatives to the traditional four-year degree, like apprenticeships and short-term credentials. That shift is putting new pressure on community colleges to get the education-to-work pipeline right.
Apprenticeships are no longer just for the trades. They’re expanding into health care, technology, and business services, and colleges are central to that shift.
Join The Chronicle of Higher Education's Managing Editor Ian Wilhelm, Compton College President Dr. Keith Curry as they explore Creating Systems Change: Pathways to Apprenticeships, Internships, and Employment with a panel of higher education leaders, policymakers and practitioners on Tuesday, September 29, at 11 a.m. PT/2 p.m. ET.
At this virtual forum, learn:
- How to build apprenticeships, internships, and stackable credentials that lead somewhere
- Where community colleges fit as apprenticeship expands beyond traditional trades
- How to translate campus-level innovation into equitable, systemwide change
