What is a Program Pathway?

A program pathway consists of the combination of courses that make up a student’s educational program and the supports provided by the program. It is designed to allow students to explore a particular destination and should reflect the goals that motivate students to complete their secondary education. A program pathway will help students be successful in their transition to the workplace, apprenticeship, college, or university. Students can select from a variety of types of courses to meet the needs of their individual pathways. Types of courses include: academic, applied, locally developed compulsory courses, open, workplace, college, university/college, and university. For more information about Program Pathways, contact the Student Services or Guidance Department in your school or Curriculum Services at the OCDSB.
