📍 Where to Find This Report
Student → Student Custom Reports → CTE → CTE Pathways Report
The CTE Pathways Report identifies students who have completed one or more Career Technical Education (CTE) Pathways based on CALPADS course completion data. It allows districts to verify pathway completion, monitor participation in CTE programs, and support College and Career Indicator (CCI) reporting and local program evaluation.
👤 What this Report Shows
The CTE Pathways Report displays one row for each completed CTE pathway.
Each record identifies:
- The student who completed the pathway
- The completed CTE pathway
- The student’s school and grade level
- Additional demographic information, when selected
Because students may complete more than one CTE pathway, the same student may appear multiple times in the report.

📊 How to Interpret This Report
The CTE Pathways Report identifies students who have completed one or more Career Technical Education pathways based on imported CALPADS course completion records.
Each row represents a completed pathway for a student—not necessarily a unique student. Students who complete multiple pathways will appear once for each completed pathway.
If expected students do not appear in the report:
- Verify that the latest CALPADS course completion files have been imported.
- Confirm the selected Academic Year.
- Review the CTE Pathway filter.
- Remove restrictive filters and rerun the report.
Combining pathway filters with demographic filters provides valuable insight into participation and completion among specific student populations.
