FY2024 Innovation Career Pathways Part A Application - Due October 2023

I. Applicant and Partner Information

Dear colleague,

Thank you for your interest in Innovation Career Pathways, and welcome to the 2023-2024 designation cycle! This is the official application for Part A, which is due by 5:00PM on October 26, 2023. Each question must be answered to be able to submit.  

Applicants who are successful at Part A will be invited to submit Part B applications. Between mid-November 2023 through January 2024, DESE will offer technical support as qualified applicants prepare materials for submission. Final designation submissions will be reviewed in February, and all applicants who submit Part B materials must participate in a 60-minute interview with department staff. Areas of focus will be informed by the applicant’s written submission. Designations will be conferred by the DESE Commissioner by the end of March 2024.

Best of luck with the process, and please be in touch with any questions.

Jennifer Gwatkin, for the DESE Innovation Career Pathways Team
