    3. Georgia Department of Education Vision Statement We will lead the nation in improving student achievement.

    4. Vision of Seamless Education A system of education in which students effectively move among schools as they advance their education from elementary school through higher education. The envisioned system will ensure that students… are prepared for their future educational and career goals; have an excellent and uniform educational advising process; do not repeat work they have mastered. Seamless Education Liaison Committee was created – DTAE, BOR, and DOESeamless Education Liaison Committee was created – DTAE, BOR, and DOE

    5. Workforce Development Task Force Recommendations Leverage the existing connection between business and education communities to ensure that present and future industry skill requirements are known and adopted by the education community. Graduates have the skills and qualities needed by employers. Create a linkage among the economic development, employer and education communities to ensure that the education community attracts and generates the number of potential workers required by employers. Support and enhance efforts to build a culture that values a basic education, lifelong learning and work.

    6. New Perkins Legislation Overview Programs of Study: a cohesive set of academic & technical content that seamlessly connects secondary and post-secondary programs State and Local Accountability: an accountability system that places parallel responsibilities on the USDOE; DOE and DTAE; and local recipients Tech Prep: makes Tech Prep more measurable and more closely connects Tech Prep with other CTE activities Economic and Personal Competitiveness: encourages a sense of competitiveness to enter careers that are high-wage, high-skilled or in high-demand

    7. Misconceptions Hands-on, not minds-on learning. CTAE teachers as non-academic. CTAE courses as non-college preparatory. CTAE pathways as restrictive. Work-based learning as speedy exit. CTAE courses as “dumping ground.”
