Built for community college transfer pathways

Articulation-aware Career Match. Transfer-readiness signal. Free for students.

Career Guide shows typical four-year major routes and your CC's articulation agreements. Advisor dashboard surfaces who needs a 1:1 this month. CTE pathway alternatives shown alongside transfer for students better-served by certificate routes.

In Brief

JobCannon for Community College Transfer Pathways serves CC students considering transfer to four-year institutions, with Career Match outputs that incorporate articulation data — typical four-year major routes for each career, in-state public universities with articulation agreements with your CC, prerequisite-course progress flags. Maps against ASSIST in California, Transferology nationally, state-specific transfer-equivalency systems where available. Advisor caseload dashboard surfaces three views: students ready for advising appointment, students with completed assessments but unclear pathway, students who started but did not complete. CTE certificate and associate-degree-occupational routes shown alongside transfer for students better-served by applied pathways. Supports California AB 928 and AB 1111 reporting via Cal-PASS Plus and Student Success Metrics-friendly exports; parallel mappings for Florida 2+2, Texas TCCNS, Arizona ATC, Washington DTA. Dual-enrolled high school students supported with weighted Career Match toward routes completable by age 19-20. Promise programme cohort flagging with early-warning signal for weak Career Match against declared pathway. Student access is free; advisor dashboard runs on Business tier or scoped under partnership for multi-college district deployments.

What community college advisors get

Articulation-aware, advisor-caseload-friendly, pathway-realistic.

Articulation-aware Career Match
Career Guide output includes typical four-year majors, your CC's articulation partners, and prerequisite-course progress flags. Maps against ASSIST, Transferology, and state-specific transfer-equivalency systems.
CTE pathway alternatives
Students whose Skills Audit favours kinesthetic and applied learning see CTE pathways prominently with timeline and earning data alongside transfer routes. Conversation moves from transfer-or-not to which-of-these-pathways.
Advisor caseload triage
400-student caseloads become manageable when the dashboard prioritises which 30 students need a 1:1 this month. Three triage views surface ready-for-advising, exploratory-conversation, nudge-needed students.
Promise programme support
Tennessee Promise, California Promise Grant, Oregon Promise cohort flagging. Early-warning signal for students whose Career Match shows weak alignment to declared pathway prompts advisor to surface alternatives.

FAQ

How does Career Match incorporate transfer articulation?

Career Guide outputs include the typical four-year major route to that career and indicate which majors are common destinations from your community college. We map against publicly available articulation data (ASSIST in California, Transferology nationally, state-specific transfer-equivalency systems) to surface destinations where credits transfer cleanly. The student sees not just "Marketing Manager is a good match for you" but "the typical four-year route is a Marketing or Business Administration major; the in-state public universities your CC has articulation agreements with are X, Y, Z; transfer requirements include these prerequisite courses you have or have not completed". Advisors stop hand-rolling this conversation per student.

How does this fit AB 928 and California Community Colleges system reporting?

For California, AB 928 and the AB 1111 common course numbering work create a structured transfer readiness reporting expectation. JobCannon outputs student-level transfer-readiness data — assessment completion, Career Match alignment to identified four-year destination, prerequisite progress flag — that integrates into Cal-PASS Plus and Student Success Metrics frameworks. We do not directly file in CCCApply or CCCCO data systems; we provide the student-readiness file your district uses in its data submission. For non-California systems (Florida 2+2, Texas TCCNS, Arizona ATC, Washington DTA), parallel mappings supported.

What about students considering CTE certificate routes instead of transfer?

Plenty of community college students start aiming at transfer and end up better-served by a CTE certificate or associate-degree-occupational route. The platform does not push transfer; it shows realistic pathways. A student whose Skills Audit favours kinesthetic and applied learning over academic abstraction sees CTE pathways prominently in their Career Guide output, with timeline and earning data alongside transfer routes. The conversation with their advisor moves from "transfer or not" to "which of these four pathways fits your goals and your context".

Does this work with our advisor caseload of 400-plus students?

Yes. Advisors do not administer assessments; students take them on their own time during career-exploration weeks (often spring of the first year). Advisor dashboard surfaces three views: students with completed Career Match and identified transfer destination ready for advising appointment, students with completed assessments but no clear pathway needing exploratory conversation, and students who started but did not complete who need a nudge. A 400-student caseload becomes manageable when the dashboard prioritises which 30 students need a 1:1 this month.

How do dual-enrolled high school students fit?

Dual-enrolled high school students taking community college courses are tagged with both high school and CC cohort flags. They access the same assessments and Career Guide but Career Match weightings shift slightly toward in-state four-year destinations and CTE pathways the student can complete by age 19-20. Some districts pay for the platform under their CTE consortium budget; others pay under the community college budget; some split the cost. We can scope the deployment to either or both funding sources.

What about Promise programmes and need-based students?

Tennessee Promise, California Promise Grant, Oregon Promise, and other free-community-college programmes typically include guided pathway components where Career Match and transfer-readiness data inform the structured pathway selection in semester one or two. The platform supports Promise-flagged cohorts with the same battery and adds an early-warning flag for students whose Career Match shows weak alignment to their declared pathway, prompting the advisor to surface alternatives before the student locks in.
