Education to Employment Partners (E2E), formerly Citizens for Educational Excellence (CEE), was established as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit community organization in 2003 by the Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce Foundation as a way to improve high school graduation rates. The CEE name was changed to E2E in 2020 to better reflect the organization’s mission, which is to bring together people, information, and resources to increase educational and job attainment in the Coastal Bend.
Led by a 17-member board of directors, E2E provides youth programs, conducts professional development for educators, leads education forums, and establishes programs designed to increase postsecondary and career success. Major initiatives include Coastal Compass Education and Career Resource Center, Education to Employment Partners Regional P-16 Council, Emerging Professionals Internship Program, Recapture Your Dream for adult college completion, and serving as the Education Designee for the City of Corpus Christi. E2E also works with national, state, and local organizations, including the Lumina Foundation, The Graduate Network, National College Attainment Network, National League of Cities, Trellis Foundation, and the City of Corpus Christi’s Education/Workforce Committee.
