Kansas CTE leading the way….. QUANTITY QUALITY Partnerships Professional Development Instructional Practices Physical Environment Student Outcomes 2298 Pathways in 13-14 2471 Pathway in 14-15 22,763 CTSO students in 12-13 23,653 CTSO students in 13-14 Statewide Articulated Agreements: 13-14 = 73 14-15 = 91
Success of Senate Bill 155 • In 2014, College CTE courses taken by HS students - a 112% increase in headcount and 116% increase in college credit hours over the baseline year (2012) • 1,419 secondary students earned industry-recognized credentials leading to a high demand occupation - an increase of 159% over the 548 credentials earned the baseline year (2012) • Major areas for secondary student certifications: 73% Health; 9% Construction; 7% Manufacturing; 6% Automotive; 4% Agriculture
Kansas Workforce Needs Higher percentage of post-secondary education completers (most of the “new” jobs will require a credential and/or an Associate’s degree) 2. Higher skilled employees
52% Current % of Post-secondary completers in Kansas Post-secondary completion = Credential through Advanced degree
69% % Completing 1 year of college credit Kansas Class of 2007
Think – Pair - Share What are some of the reasons over half of our students who start in post-secondary don’t complete a degree? What can we do in secondary education to cause more students to complete a post-secondary degree?
College and Career Ready in Kansas College and Career Ready means an individual has the academic preparation, cognitive preparation, technical skills, and employability skills to be successful in postsecondary education, in the attainment of an industry recognized certification or in the workforce, without the need for remediation.
Closing the Gap Focus on Career Awareness & Guidance and CTE Pathways to help more students complete a post-secondary credential or degree Review Pathway Standards to ensure they are relevant, rigorous, and reflective of current business/industry standards
