Career & Technical Education Advisory Boards

Program advisory committees are a required component of state-approved CTE programs under the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act of 2018, commonly referred to as Perkins V. Expertise of individuals from related business and industry play an essential role in providing high-quality CTE programs, in addition to fostering the development of a trained and educated workforce. Program advisory committees determine the need for the program in the comprehensive high school or technical center. The primary purpose of a program advisory committee is to serve as a resource and a connection to the workplace for CTE teachers, administrators, and students. The CTE program advisory committee guides the local education agency (LEA) with planning, development, implementation, operation, promotion, evaluation, and maintenance of the CTE program that result in continuous program improvement.

Member Impact

A program advisory committee provides input on the following:

  • Business and industry processes, equipment, and replication of work environments

  • Input on the process to plan and implement relevant CTE programs

  • Workforce needs for employers

  • Worker knowledge and skill needs

  • Recruitment of additional business and industry partners

  • A plan for safety training in the classroom and in work-based learning (WBL) settings

  • Related WBL experiences for students

  • Access, equity, and inclusion within the program

  • Professional development opportunities

  • Ways to include early college credit opportunities

Program advisory committee members may assist in the classroom with activities and program requirements.
