2025 Regional CTE Advisory Board Meeting

March 18th, 2025 - Now Open

The Regional CTE Advisory Board Meeting is an event that brings industry and educational partners together with our local career and technical education instructors to discuss what is being taught in the high school CTE courses.  We truly value the input from our partners and need your support as we continually improve our programs.  We look forward to an evening of rich discussion and networking. Due to the large number of programs in our county, we will be holding advisory meetings at several different locations depending on the program.

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.
