Why Career and Technical Education?
CTE is Critical to Our Nations Future Because……• Global competition
• There are shortages of qualified skilled workers
• There are deficiencies in the most current equipment/technology
• It offers employability skills
• The courses provide leadership, team work, and communication skills
CTE’s Role in The Classroom
Washington State CTE courses require teachers and schools to:• Ensure that coursework is simultaneously aligned to
rigorous academic standards, postsecondary expectations, and to industry standards

CTE, Not Just a Program!
ALL CTE courses offer equal and equitable education for ALL students through Methods of Administration
(MOA)
Purpose of the MOA
To ensure students enjoy equal access to CTE programs and activities regardless of race, color, national origin,
sex, or disability.
The intent is to identify, remedy and prevent discrimination in CTE programs operated
by education agencies receivingfederal financial assistance.

Young kids cannot fill the
current employer demand
CTE classes attract
students who are not

CTE &Postsecondary Education
Many CTE courses offer dual credit
opportunities and attract students who are college
and career bound
According to the National Association of State Directors of Career Technical Education Consortium, CTE is an educational strategy for providing young people with the academic, technical, and employability skills and knowledge to pursue postsecondary training or higher education. CTE courses in
Washington State offer students with Dual credit opportunities through Tech Prep articulation and through the Advanced Placements CTE courses approved by the College Board.
ALL CTE instructors are required to have a CTE certificate in a specific
program area of teaching
High School Drop Outs: An Economic Problem
CT courses provide a hand on approach to learning, keeping
kids engaged in school and offer extended learning into
the community & job training
ALL CTE frameworks are aligned to the
Common Core State Standards and the 21st
Century Skills
CTE classes teach students various skill
sets that prepare them for employment and
postsecondary education
“The National Dropout Prevention Center/Network has identified 15 strategies that have the most positive impact on dropout rate. Career and Technical Education was one of the 15 strategies.”
Facts About CTEStrategies include:• Systemic renewal• Safe learning environments*• Family engagement*• Early childhood education• Early literacy development• Mentoring/tutoring*• Service-learning**• Alternative schooling*• After-school opportunities**• Professional development*• Active learning**• Educational technology**• Individualized instruction*• Career and Technical Education
Many of these strategies are integrated into the Career and Technical Education model such as service-learning, afterschool
opportunities, and active learning environments!
