Administration Views
“While we know that high-quality career and technical education strategies have the potential to prepare students for jobs in the knowledge economy, many career and technical programs haven’t lived up to their promise of preparing students for careers and college.”

Administration Views
“The Obama administration says that overall, data about career and technical education is mixed. There are “islands of excellence,” said Brenda Dann-Messier, assistant secretary for vocational and adult education, but there is still “uneven quality around the country.” NY Times Article, July 9, 2011 by Motoko Rich
