This is a great suggestion for how to maximize the impact of CTE. For additional information on CTE and how effective it can be in filling economic gaps and boosting student achievement, feel free to visit the website of the newly created Industry Workforce Needs Council at http://www.iwnc.org. This group is committed to shining a spotlight on these kinds of issues and working to boost student achievement and the overall economy through CTE education.
Great resource! It is nice to see positive and constructive organizations working toward bettering individual’s education base and skills that prepare people for real life working skills. This also benefits the economy at the same time! If more people took part in programs such as this and worked on developing skills prior to enrollment, the cost of their education can be minimized dramatically, one thing we know is getting out of hand.
