  "summary": "<p>The City of New Haven is seeking a qualified and experienced project manager to assist with the implementation of a Career Connected Learning Hub / technical education program, building on the existing career pathways programs provided by New Haven Public Schools (&ldquo;NHPS Career Pathways Program&rdquo;) in partnership with various educational providers. The selected project manager will be responsible for coordinating with a range of stakeholders&mdash;including city agencies, educational institutions, employers, and community organizations &ndash; on programmatic and physical design as well as permitting and stakeholder engagement.</p><p>In 2024, the City completed a comprehensive study of workforce development/career pathway opportunities for high-school students and young adults (&ldquo;Study&rdquo;). &nbsp;A copy of this document is attached as supplemental information to this RFP. &nbsp; Building up from this work, the project manager shall continue integration with NHPS Career Pathways, expanding programs through two new initiatives, Comprehensive Career Pathways (&ldquo;Comprehensive Program&rdquo;) and Health Care Career Pathways (&ldquo;Health Care Program&rdquo;) and each as described in brief detail below:</p><p><strong>Comprehensive Program:</strong> &nbsp;Based on the Study, the City has identified the now-vacant New Haven Armory as the identified location for the Comprehensive Program and may also be the selected home for the more-specific health care programs. &nbsp;The selected project manager will focus on both design and programmatic elements of the project. &nbsp;Given the scale of the Armory project, the Comprehensive Program will be one component to a larger vision which includes housing and community use of the Armory. &nbsp;On a parallel path, the City will be carrying out a feasibility study of the entire vision in partnership with the Armory Steering Committee. &nbsp;The Comprehensive Program will need to advance on an accelerated schedule; however, the project manager will be responsible for close coordination and alignment with other elements of the vision.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Health Care Program:</strong> New Haven Public Schools currently provides a wide range of career pathways and exploration programs. &nbsp;Working with NHPS and various partners, the Health Care Program is anticipated to be the largest of the expanded offerings, with a wide range of credentials, dual enrollment and other credits designed to accelerate living-wage career opportunities. &nbsp;As such, the Health Care Program will be largely designed by NHPS and may or may not be based at the Armory.</p>",
