Daniel Nieman, Web and Digital Media Producer and Senior Information Technology Analyst at West Valley College, said the use of external career resources* *on the school’s website has made learners work for answers to important questions.  “Driving traffic to external resources presents its own challenges,” Nieman said. “When content is not presented clearly on our website, it adds an extra step for learners to navigate.” He said consistency has also been an issue since career options displayed on a partnered site often do not line up with a student’s selected program.  Nieman pointed out a lack of job market data on West Valley’s website, which puts the onus on learners to find their ROI. “We did not have much to offer in relation to salary data or employment trends in our area.”  “ ### **W**hen content is not presented clearly on our website, it adds an extra step for learners to navigate. **Daniel Nieman**Web and Digital Media Producer and Senior Information Technology Analyst, West Valley College West Valley’s program pages currently disclose career options in a static format. “We are just doing a ‘list item’ of occupations around a degree or certificate. It's not informative, dynamic, or engaging.” ## How Personalization and Pathways Software Engages Learners Acknowledging the need for seamless learner personalization and clear-cut ROI, West Valley College is implementing [Modern Campus Pathways](https://moderncampus.com/products/career-pathways-planning.html) to transform the student experience.  Seamlessly integrated with Modern Campus CMS and Lifelong Learning Extended Education, the module presents learners with a Job Market Outlook that displays relevant labor market data on course, program and certificate pages. As a result, students can make informed decisions that help them launch successful careers.  As West Valley grows with the Modern Campus Pathways, Nieman credits the Job Market Outlook feature with enabling the college to showcase specific career outcomes—the content students are in dire need of—*directly* on the college website. Nieman points out, “[Students] can see an overview of those currently employed in a specific position, as well as average salary and employment trends.” This kind of transparency will allow learners to see their outcomes at a glance. “[Students] can see the top occupation for people in this area, then see a description of that occupation.” “ ### **S**tudents can see an overview of those currently employed in a specific position, as well as average salary and employment trends. **Daniel Nieman**Web and Digital Media Producer and Senior Information Technology Analyst, West Valley College The module also offers the Career and Program Explorer, an advanced search feature that allows learners to compare programs and careers for return on investment. With this tool, West Valley students can make easy career comparisons by cost, completion time, and median salary. Persona-based Templates utilize input from students to suggest program paths and present pertinent information that drive them through the college’s enrollment funnel. Nieman said this can be the push that many learners need to enroll. “We now have a ‘call to action’ that sends students directly to the Career Services page, which encourages them to dive deeper into exploring a career around one of our programs or certificates.”   #### Massive Personalization and Career Pathways Revolutionize the student experience at your college or university with a personalized digital student engagement strategy using your most powerful tool—your website.
