What Is CTE Online?

Critical Need
CTE Online was established to help practitioners articulate a clear and deliberate relationship between academic achievement and Career and Technical Education through access to the following:

Program Vision
In an attempt to help site administrators and district leadership personnel bring ALL of their faculty to bear on the issue of student academic achievement and performance...

CTE Online is poised as a resource devoted to connecting educators and leaders within the unique field of Career and Technical Education to quality professional development tools that help establish the role rigorous academic skills play in pursuit of industry and career related coursework. Local instructional leaders will find all of the tools necessary to help their faculty members identify and align rich career and technical curricula with the promotion of academic skills commonly measured on state assessments facing our students, schools, and districts each year.

It is the belief of this program that CTE personnel and departments can and do serve a vital role in reinforcing academic skills in a contextualized, applied instructional setting that is difficult to replicate in traditional core academic settings, and therefore should be embraced and utilized as an integral piece in support campus and district wide academic achievement efforts.

Connecting Our Efforts
CTE educators and leaders throughout the state are finding new opportunities to join in a common process of curriculum related work that helps publicize the methods by which academic skills are integrated into all CTE programs on a daily basis. This site serves as yet another device by which skilled educators within this dynamic field can share the work they are doing to support the balanced development of our youth that supports both their current academic challenges and future career interests equally.
