| Abstract: | As the Latino population grows, their educational and career success is tied to the nation's economic prosperity. Despite current discourse that calls to question the value of higher education today, research continues to show that a college degree increases lifetime earnings, job stability, and long-term well-being. For Latino students, degrees can transform life trajectories--not only for individuals but for entire families. Strengthening pathways from college to career for Latino, and all, students is key to our country, future workforce, and advancing economic mobility. ? In this brief, "Excelencia in Education" identified three key post-completion strategies from engaging with institutions in the Excelencia in Action network--preparing Latino, and all, students for success beyond graduation, linking them to meaningful workforce opportunities, and measuring post-completion outcomes. |
