Defined in Your State
Career-Connected Learning in Tennessee
Statewide PartnershipTennessee educators have statewide access to Defined Learning through a partnership with the Tennessee STEM Innovation Network (TSIN) — bringing career-connected, project-based curriculum to classrooms across the state at no cost to districts. From rural communities in Appalachia to urban districts in Nashville and Memphis, Defined is helping Tennessee students see the connection between what they learn in school and where it can take them.
The TSIN partnership includes Defined's full curriculum ecosystem: career-connected tasks and projects aligned to Tennessee state standards, Defined Academy professional learning, and Defined Careers for student exploration — all integrated with the state's workforce and STEM priorities.
How Defined Works in Tennessee
Tennessee STEM Innovation Network
A statewide partnership through TSIN provides all Tennessee educators with free access to Defined Learning — including curriculum, professional development, and career exploration tools aligned to Tennessee's STEM priorities.
Standards-Aligned Projects
Every Defined task and project is mapped to Tennessee Academic Standards across K-12 — making it simple for teachers to integrate deeper learning without disrupting existing scope and sequence or pacing guides.
Workforce-Connected Career Pathways
Defined Careers connects Tennessee students to regional industry pathways — from automotive and advanced manufacturing to healthcare and technology — reflecting the state's top employer sectors.
“Defined Learning has helped our teachers connect what happens in the classroom to real careers in a way that students actually find meaningful. The TSIN partnership made it possible for every district to access this, not just the well-funded ones.”
