Former education secretary Miguel Cardona will chair a new commission in Connecticut aimed at improving the state’s career pathways system, the state announced last week.
Connecticut governor Ned Lamont signed an executive order last Thursday to create the Connecticut Career Pathways Commission. The panel will develop a five-year strategic plan that includes recommendations on how state leaders can improve and expand career pathways.
The end goal, according to the news release, is “that Connecticut has a modernized career pathways system incorporating all the latest innovations in artificial intelligence, automation, and global competition that provides students and jobseekers with the tools needed to obtain good-paying, long-lasting careers and can quickly adapt as new state-of-the-art innovations are developed.”

Lamont wants the commission’s final report by the end of this year.
Cardona served as the commissioner of the Connecticut State Department of Education before becoming education secretary under President Biden.
“Everybody across Connecticut knows that we have to continue to evolve to make sure that our students are prepared, with options, when they graduate,” Cardona told CT Insider. “And what I’m excited about is that we have leaders from all over—from the administration, from the private sector, from our K–12 system and higher ed, saying, ‘Let’s come together, and let’s create synergy to make sure our students have better options.’”
