In this interactive webinar\, educators will explore a collection of standards-aligned middle school instructional resources that connect core academic content to real-world careers across industries such as agriculture\, biotechnology\, health sciences\, engineering\, business\, education\, public safety\, hospitality\, manufacturing\, and environmental stewardship. Participants will receive an overview of the module structure\, examine sample lessons and driving questions\, and learn how these resources integrate career awareness\, workforce skills\, and authentic problem-solving into everyday instruction. By the end of the session\, educators will be prepared to identify modules that align with their content areas and implement meaningful career-connected learning experiences that help students see the relevance of their learning and envision future opportunities.</span></p><br/><br/><br/><br/><p><span style="font-size:16px"><strong>Participants Will:</strong></span></p><br/><br/><br/><br/><ul><br/><br/>	<li><span style="font-size:16px">Explore the Career Connected Learning resource collection and its career pathway themes.</span></li><br/><br/>	<li><span style="font-size:16px">Examine how modules connect academic standards to authentic workplace applications.</span></li><br/><br/>	<li><span style="font-size:16px">Learn strategies for integrating career exploration into core instruction.</span></li><br/><br/>	<li><span style="font-size:16px">Identify resources that support student engagement\, career awareness\, and future readiness.</span></li><br/><br/>	<li><span style="font-size:16px">Leave with ready-to-use materials and ideas for implementation in their classrooms.</span></li><br/><br/></ul><br/><br/><span style="font-size:16px"><span style="font-family:Roboto\,sans-serif"><span style="color:#000000"><strong>Accommodations: </strong>We strive to make our events accessible and inclusive to participants from all backgrounds and abilities.&nbsp\;If you think you will need additional accommodations\, such as an interpreter\, please contact <a href="mailto:kdoolittle@nwresd.k12.or.us?subject=MS%20CCL%20Webinar%20Accommodation">Kevanna Doolittle</a>.</span></span></span><br/><br/><br/><br/><div><br/><span style="font-size:16px"><span style="font-family:Roboto\,sans-serif"><span style="color:#000000"><strong>About Northwest Regional Education Service District: </strong>Northwest Regional ESD is the largest of Oregon&rsquo\;s 19 education service districts.
