Join education leaders from across the nation for a powerful professional development summit focused on reimagining Career and Technical Education (CTE) for today’s learners and tomorrow’s workforce. This experience will explore how modern CTE programs are evolving to meet the demands of a rapidly changing economy—through innovative course design, expanded certification opportunities, and strategic public-private partnerships. Dive into real-world case studies on successful apprenticeship models, scalable funding strategies, and how districts are aligning education with high-growth industries. Attendees will engage with national experts to unpack the explosive growth of CTE, explore new models for job placement, and address emerging challenges such as equity, recruitment, and industry alignment. Whether you're a district administrator, school leader, or educator shaping student futures, this summit will equip you with actionable strategies to build robust CTE programs that prepare students for real-world success.
