Los Angeles Unified School District recognized for reaching highest standards in college and career preparation.

This fall has been a flurry of activity and inspiration. Over the last several weeks, the Linked Learning Alliance has traveled to Antelope Valley, Long Beach, and San Bernardino to honor the first pathways in California to earn Linked Learning Gold Certification. The best part is being with communities as they gather to celebrate: educators, industry partners, elected officials working together on a shared future—and students buoyed by their support.

Last month, we launched our newly refined process and standards for Gold certification, the highest quality marker for Linked Learning. Learn how Linked Learning Certification helps you improve your pathway over time, unlocks benefits for students, and gives schools and districts the recognition you deserve.

Linked Learning Gold Certification is inspiring and challenging educators across California and the nation to develop high-quality career and college readiness programs for all students.

One of the school districts deeply involved in high quality Linked Learning work and is using Linked Learning Certification and Linked Learning Analytics to continually improve pathway quality is Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD).

Students in select, certified Linked Learning pathways can soon benefit from industry digital badges that signify their achievements and grant them special advantages such as internships and financial support from partnering employers, the Linked Learning Alliance announced today.
