Data, Accountability, & Advocacy Workshop

May 8, 2014

National Perspective on CTE

• Funding for CTE– Perkins Funds are not increasing– Competitive grants

• Perkins Reauthorization – – On-going discussions– Hard to predict when reauthorization will

occur

CTE in Wisconsin• Elevating the Importance of CTE – CTE Month Advocacy– Business/Education Partnerships– Using CTEERS Data to promote CTE

• State Funding Opportunities– CTE Incentive Grants (DPI)– Fast Forward Grants (DWD)–WTCS Career Pathways (WTCS)

Accountability

• Composite Enrollment Report – Due July 15

– Information on all Juniors and Seniors

• Graduate Follow-up Report – May 1 following year

• The information from the above reports are used to create: – CTEERS Basic Facts– District Profile– CTE Advocacy Resources
