The College to Career Experience is a career transition prep program for individuals with intellectual disabilities. We provide support services needed to help each student's individual needs to succeed in a college setting. Because of our attention to each student, spots are limited in this program. CCE is best suited for individuals who are seeking to gain independence and to learn skills at Murray State that can be used in future job fields. The college experience can be extra challenging for individuals who need higher levels of day-to-day support; like using their email, arranging their own transportation, or communicating their needs. If you, or someone you know, is still in high school and considering attending Murray State, now is a great time to begin practicing those skills. Our CCE coordinator is happy to discuss more details about helpful independence skills to have before attending university.

College is the logical next step after high school for many young people, including students with intellectual disabilities. Being on campus is about more than just going to class. Benefits of participating in campus life can include developing new friendships, being a part of a learning community, trying new experiences, and participating in job internships. Skills that can be gained include self-advocacy, problem solving, and new areas of independence, in addition to skills related to a course of study. The SHEP program gives students the opportunity to access all that a college campus has to offer.

In short, Career and Technical Education (CTE) is an essential component of the high school curriculum. For many students, it represents as much as a third of their high school experience. It is a critical component in meeting the needs of students in academic achievement, career exploration, career preparation and leadership development. Successful transition to postsecondary education, work or the military is one of the goals of Kentucky's educational system. The percentage of students making successful transition is a component of the high school accountability index.

In 1966, a group of concerned citizens incorporated the Nineteenth Regional Mental Health / Mental Retardation Board in response to President Kennedy’s initiative to drastically alter the delivery of behavioral health services. As a result, federal funds were issued to establish the Appalachian Comprehensive Care Center to provide behavioral health services in Boyd, Carter, Greenup, and Lawrence counties. Elliott County was added later when statewide districts were formed by the state / federal governments. In 1972, the name was changed to Lansdowne Comprehensive Care Center, and in 1982 Lansdowne merged with the Cave Run Comprehensive Care Center to become Pathways, Inc. (hereinafter, Pathways). Five additional counties – Bath, Menifee, Montgomery, Morgan, and Rowan – were added to the catchment area following the merger.
