Lewis-Clark State College has worked to change from individual siloed program to create career clusters for our degree and certificate programs. This process has potential to assist students with guided pathways to degrees and careers and introduces a great deal of flexibility in our programs and options for faculty, including faculty hiring processes and requirements. Participants will learn how the college was set up (in silos) and how the process has proceeded to the career clusters. I will describe the changes, challenges, and potential benefits of this type of arrangement for students, industry, and college administration.
