This Year in Review
In FY 24-25, Arizona Career Pathways positively impacted the lives of 294 individuals pursuing an educational credential through the Maricopa Community Colleges by offering tailored support including career counseling, financial assistance, support services, and career connections.
This year, we enrolled 40 new students and assisted 101 individuals from the
previous fiscal year in continuing their educational journeys. Of 294 students
served, 153 students completed their programs successfully and the remaining 151 are continuing to progress in their programs into FY25-26.
Most importantly, a total of 42 recent graduates confirmed obtaining a new job or were promoted as a result of completing a credential. The average new wage our graduates receive is $28.00/hr. or $58,240 annually.
Demographics
Arizona Career Pathways is proud to serve a diverse group of individuals who are determined to build a brighter future for themselves and their families. Our students represent the resilient and driven individuals who are the future of our community.
Effects of Our Program
Due to the students graduating and increasing their income,
these students are no longer eligible for public assistance in these areas.
Since 2010, Arizona Career Pathways’ proven workforce development model has provided low-income students with the skills training they need for the most in-demand jobs in our community. In doing so, we are making a transformational, positive impact on the lives of our students and their families and producing significant, measurable economic impacts for Maricopa County and our state.
