Learning Solution
Together, We Build Careers
At Goodheart-Willcox, we take our mission seriously. Since 1921, G-W has been serving the career and
technical education (CTE) community. Our employee-owners are driven to deliver exceptional learning
solutions to CTE students to help prepare them for careers. Our authors and subject matter experts have
years of experience in the classroom and industry. We combine their wisdom with our expertise to create
content and tools to help students achieve success. Our products start with theory and applied content
based on a strong foundation of accepted standards and curriculum. To that base, we add student-focused
learning features and tools designed to help students make connections between knowledge and skills. G-W
recognizes the crucial role instructors play in preparing students for careers. We support educators’ efforts
by providing time-saving tools that help them plan, present, assess, and engage students with traditional
and digital activities and assets. We provide an entire program of learning in a variety of print, digital, and
online formats, including economic bundles, allowing educators to select the right mix for their classroom.
Student-Focused Curated Content
Goodheart-Willcox believes that student-focused content should be built from standards and
accepted curriculum coverage. Standards from Precision Exams were woven throughout this text.
Photography: Portfolio to Profession is structured to provide a logical teaching progression that helps
students build on their learning. We call on industry experts and teachers from across the country to
review and comment on our content, presentation, and pedagogy. Finally, in our refinement of curated
content, our editors are immersed in content checking, securing and sometimes creating figures that
convey key information, and revising language and pedagogy.
