NEW MEXICO COMMUNITY COLLEGES SUN-PATH PROJECT

Categories: Students   Faculty   Staff  

May 7, 2020 - UNM-Gallup is standing together with all community colleges in New Mexico to help get people back to work with excellent training and education—and to reopen our economy.

A consortium project among New Mexico’s 10 branch community colleges created the Skill-Up Network Pathways Acceleration in Technology and Healthcare (SUN PATH) project to successfully expand and improve healthcare pathways for New Mexico students; align workforce training curriculum with employer needs; increase the number of degrees, certificates, and industry-recognized credentials earned by participating students; and help improve employment outcomes in healthcare fields.

You can learn about these efforts in a recent letter published by the consortium that outlines the great steps taken by community colleges in New Mexico to provide nearly 4 in 10 New Mexico college students the workforce skills needed in today’s economy.
