  3. Core Values - N etworking and Collaboration - C areer Development - H ealth Science Framework - S tandards for Quality - E ducation for Future Health Professionals

  4. Cluster Development • Grant funded work began in 1992 • Process : 1,000 healthcare employers, college and university faculty, secondary teachers and professional organization representatives provided input to identify common practices, reviewed content for each standard, and pilot tested. • Resultant : 11 common healthcare foundation standards and 5 career pathways
