ISBE to host meetings about CTE Standards with professionals from across careers
Educators, please share with your business and industry and community partners and encourage them to join us!
Among educational leaders at all levels, the advancement of Career and Technical Education (CTE) is a high priority for students in middle school, high school, and in the full range of postsecondary institutions. As part of these efforts, the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) is developing Illinois’ first set of statewide student learning standards for CTE instruction. The CTE standards will provide broad targets on which school districts can develop their local CTE curriculum and which will provide a focus to teachers in creating student learning opportunities.
ISBE is planning regional meetings (north, central, and south) to gather feedback from professionals across a wide range of industries on the knowledge and skills that students need to be successful as they move into our current and future workplaces.
- April 15 – 9 AM – Mt. Vernon Airport
- April 18 – 1 PM – Heartland Community College
- April 19 – 10.30 AM – Elgin Community College
- April 22 – 9 AM – Online via Zoom
(Zoom information will be sent to registered participants on April 21.)
Registration is free to these events, which are open to individuals from across all industries and professions. Please click here to register.
The results of these regional meetings will be used by educators from across Illinois in June to engage in similar activities around the CTE Standards. In partnership with ISBE, we hope to have a large turnout to support these efforts and ensure that our educational outcomes are on-target for our students, so please share this information with colleagues.
