Career and technical education (CTE) programs prepare students of all ages for college and career success by providing core academic, technical, and job-specific skills through classroom and work-based learning. Partnerships between industry and education ensure students have the knowledge and expertise needed for lifelong careers in high-wage, high-skill and in-demand fields, including IT, manufacturing, healthcare, and the skilled trades.
Help kick off National Career and Technical Education (CTE) Month by joining us for a briefing on the foundations of CTE and how it benefits students and businesses throughout the country. Learn from a panel of experts about the CTE model, relevant federal law, and opportunities for your Member to support CTE in the 116th Congress.
Panelists:
Tim Lawrence, Executive Director, SkillsUSA
Kathryn Zekus, Senior Associate for Federal Policy, Advance CTE
Jarrod Nagurka, Advocacy and Public Affairs Manager, ACTE
Remarks by Co-Chairs Rep. Jim Langevin (D-RI) and Rep. Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-PA)

There’s a familiar name: Glenn Thompson. He was our rep in State College/Penn State until our gerrymandered district was revised due to the PA Supreme Court ruling. I would not consider him a friend of adult education. I’m sure he will talk a good game, though.
Best,
Esther
