From Perkins: • A CTE Program of Study is comprised of a secondary component and a postsecondary component leading to a postsecondary certificate of completion (45 quarter hours +), degree or an industry-recognized credential. • CTE Programs of Study must lead to occupations in high demand, high wage career areas (as listed at Regional High Demand, High Wage Occupations). • The secondary component and postsecondary component may be approved separately or jointly. Separate approval must explicitly show the alignment of standards across the two educational levels. • Courses within a CTE Program of Study must be based on, and aligned with, industry-validated technical and academic standards. • CTE Program of Study content standards and assessment strategies must be validated by local or regional employers or industry groups.

  8. Start with the basics • Is your current program aligned with an industry standard? • Does your program lead to a High Wage, High Demand occupation? • Does a local college have a program that is similar to yours? • Could you tweak your curriculum to match up with it? • Maybe your local college has wanted to start a program like yours?
