SMARTpath connects what employers need to what schools already teach. For the first time, see the talent pipeline running through your community — and know exactly where to strengthen it.
SMARTpath reads what already exists — no new curriculum, no teacher workload, no technology integration — and makes the workforce connection visible.
Job families and hiring needs go in. AI extracts the specific skills required and maps each one backward through five developmental stages — from career requirements all the way to Pre-K curiosity behaviors.
A standard enrollment export from your SIS — the same report districts already run. Uploaded quarterly. No PII collected. ~10 minutes per quarter, that's it.
For the first time, employers see their local talent supply by developmental stage. Districts see how their existing curriculum already feeds workforce pathways. Everyone sees where targeted enrichment has the highest impact.
Each audience sees exactly what they need. Employers see aggregate talent supply. Districts see their curriculum connections.
See how many students across the county are developing skills aligned to your hiring needs, from Pre-K curiosity all the way to CTE pathways and internships. Know where the pipeline is strong and where it needs investment.
Quarterly reports showing talent supply by stage, gap analysis, conversion rates, and 5-year projections.
Data-driven recommendations for where volunteer hours, sponsorships, and mentorship have highest pipeline impact.
Your hiring need vs. pipeline graduating output — expressed as a supply ratio you can plan against.
These aren't grade levels — they're developmental bands that describe how students build workforce-relevant skills over time. Every career traces back through the same five stages.
The same developmental framework maps to any career — because curiosity, problem-solving, and structured thinking are universal foundations.
Data analysts, software engineers, cybersecurity — from counting and sorting to Python and AP Stats.
Engineers, technicians, welders, electricians — from building with blocks to CAD certs and apprenticeships.
Nurses, lab techs, therapists — from exploring senses to anatomy, phlebotomy, and clinical internships.
Actuaries, analysts, managers — from early math reasoning to financial modeling and business CTE.
The insight is simple: the same Pre-K curiosity behaviors that feed into data science also feed into nursing, welding, and financial analysis. The pipeline isn't a “STEM program” — it's what schools already do, traced forward to where it leads.
No new curriculum. No teacher workload. No technology integration. The system reads what already exists.
A standard CSV from your Student Information System — the same report you already know how to run. Upload quarterly. No PII collected.
Confirm the list of STEM clubs and programs at each building. A collaborative, annual check-in.
When SMARTpath brokers an employer–school connection, help identify the right teacher and classroom.
Whether you're an employer planning workforce strategy, a district demonstrating community impact, or a workforce board quantifying talent supply — let's talk.
