The Career Pathways program has a computer/lounge area for parents.  Nicely furnished and stocked with water, coffee, and snacks, it has a homey feel.  Parents can unwind, engage in stimulating conversation and take their minds off of the stress.

 

This place is like a community for parents.  Parents can unwind, engage in stimulating conversation and take their minds off of the stress.  The best part is the computer/lounge is only a few steps away from the CPI Advisors offices.

 

What bridges the gap between despair and a future of hope for parents who have limited resources in Arkansas?  The answer is simple: ANC and Career Pathways.  Since 2005, the Career Pathways program at ANC has offered a host of wrap-around services that include one-on-one personal advising, student support services that include monies for tuition, fees, books, course-related supplies, transportation, and childcare.  The program has extended assistance to include laptops and portable WiFi Jet Packs.  In addition, the staff assists with employability preparedness to nearly 300 students each year.

 

Since its beginning, the ANC Career Pathways program has been recognized for its outstanding work and student success.  In fact, the program has been #1 in the state for meeting and exceeding performance measures.  Career Pathways offers open enrollment throughout the year to all Arkansas parents with children under the age of 21.  To apply, go to www.anc.edu/pathways or schedule an in-person meeting with a staff member.
