Transform Your District's CTE Pipeline with the Power of Play
Why CTE Directors Choose Tassel Dash®
We solve the real challenges that keep your CTE programs from reaching their full potential
Low or Misaligned Enrollment
Students choose pathways based on guesswork, leading to poor fit and low engagement
Weak Middle-to-High School Transitions
Students arrive unprepared, unsure of their options, and disconnected from their pathway goals
Parent Confusion
Families don't understand CTE pathways or how they connect to real career opportunities
Underfilled CTE Programs
Without clear guidance, high-value programs sit empty while students miss life-changing opportunities
Tassel Dash® Replaces Guesswork with Confidence
Our platform helps students discover the right pathway based on their interests, strengths, and goals—not random choices. The result? Higher enrollment, better alignment, smoother transitions, and programs that thrive.
Students can't enroll in pathways they don't understand
When students don't understand CTE pathways and parents aren't familiar with modern career options, enrollment suffers. Without clear exposure to what these programs offer, students miss opportunities that could shape their futures.
Turn exposure into excitement, excitement into enrollment
Tassel Dash® transforms career exploration through game-based learning. Students discover pathways by playing, not reading. They explore careers through interactive challenges that build genuine excitement. When students understand and get excited about their options, enrollment naturally follows.
