But focusing on skills alone will fall short, particularly if schools hope to address long-standing opportunity gaps. Awareness of possible careers and access to jobs depends not only on learning and achievement, but on personal and professional relationships that serve as gateways to career opportunities. Opportunity sits at the intersection of students’ human capital—what they know and can do—and their social capital—who they know and can depend on for support and access. To launch a career, students need more than skills—they also need people willing to take a bet on their potential.  \nWith the aim of helping leaders implement effective, equitable strategies for building students’ social capital, this report offers field-tested considerations for piloting social capital building within existing career pathways initiatives. Our observations draw from an 18-month pilot during which we leveraged our social capital playbook to provide direct support to a group of three intermediary organizations—Education Strategy Group, Generation Schools Network, and Hawai‘i P-20—collectively supporting 20 sites in the K–12 career pathways space. In the course of the pilot, we sought to understand how schools and nonprofits can make social capital building an explicit, effective, and equitable component of existing careerconnected learning models.  \nSchools and programs that are interested in expanding students’ networks can consider 10 lessons learned from the pilot:  \n1. Stick with relationship outcomes: Use relationship data to develop goals and measure progress.  \n2. Audit your current practices: Look for untapped opportunities to strengthen students’ social capital within existing career-connected activities.  \n3. Prepare to build, not just buy: Given scarce off-the-shelf curricula, allocate time and resources for social capital training and curriculum development.  \n4. Honor relational norms and values: Adapt your approaches to both culture and context.  \n5. Incorporate immersive experiences: Pair social capital concepts with practice and opportunities to build real-world relationships.  \n6. Skills and access both matter: To seed positive interactions, develop communication skills alongside access to relationships.  \n7. Prime employers to share their social capital: Shifting employee volunteers’ mindsets can orient them to build relationships and share resources.  \n8. Source social capital across your enterprise: Individual social capital is a critical, but limited, lever for scale.  \n9. Embed social capital into systems: Enthusiastic practitioners foster change, but infrastructure maintains it.  \n10.Benchmark collective progress: Communities of practice build practitioner confidence.  \nEquipped with these lessons, educators can build models that embed both career know-how and know-who into stud","cbCaiskapZtRMdkw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiskapZtRMdkw","pdf",29064981,58,"English","# Executive Summary\n# Introduction\n# Part 1.
