Meeting of Student Organizations
I was back in D.C. later in the week for a meeting of the NCC-CTSO (National Coordinating Council for the Career and Technical Student Organizations) at the Office of Vocational and Adult Education (OVAE). The group discussed the future vision of the CTE project being conducted by NASDCTEc (National Association of State Directors of Career and Technical Education consortium).
We were told that Under Secretary of Education Martha Kanter (who met with the WorldTeam earlier in September) says she wants her legacy to be a much higher graduation rate and “she knows she can’t do that without CTE.” It was also reported that she wants CTE to “have parity with the academic side of the house.”
