Career & Technical Education Advisory Boards
CTE Program advisory boards 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. The primary purpose of a program advisory board is to serve as a resource and a connection to the workplace for CTE teachers, administrators, and students. The CTE program advisory board 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.
