Voices of New Hampshire Students: Career-Connected Learning's Role in Building Bright Futures

Career-connected learning (CCL) is an educational strategy that aims to better prepare students for the workforce and life beyond high school by providing all students with skills-based learning, training pathways and work experience.

NHLI and Gallup's 2024 report, Voices of New Hampshire Students: Career-Connected Learning's Role in Building Bright Futures, expands on insights released in 2023 by providing an update on the state of CCL among New Hampshire students, measuring their opinions on career-connected learning, engagement and hope.

This survey of more than 8,500 students in grades five through 12 from 25 schools and 13 districts throughout New Hampshire shows that career-connected learning has an impact, and students want more of it.
