Career Pathways (Adult) Through the Arkansas Career Pathways Initiative (CPI), the state has sought to coordinate publicly funded education with social services & workforce and economic development programs to produce a better-trained workforce and promote economic growth.

Each step on a career pathway is designed explicitly to prepare workers and students for the next level of employment and education.
