Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-270) • Funds to be used to support continuous improvement in career and technical education (CTE) • Requires accountability for results • Improved connection between secondary and postsecondary education • Stronger academic & technical integration • Stronger links to business and industry
Minnesota’s Federally-approved CTE Goals Goal 1: Design & Implement Programs of Study Goal 2: Effectively Utilize Employer, Community, and Education Partnerships Goal 3: Improve Service to Special Populations Goal 4: Provide Continuum of Service Provisions for Enabling Student Transitions Goal 5: Sustain the Consortium of Secondary and Postsecondary Institutions
Funds distributed to 26 consortia that include: • at least one secondary district (or consortium) • at least one eligible postsecondary institution. • Each consortium submits a single unified local plan developed to benefit the consortium as a whole. • This plan is reviewed and approved by CTE staff from the Minnesota Department of Education & Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System Office.
Who can access funds under Perkins IV? • Funds can only be used: • In approved CTE programs with appropriately licensed or credentialed CTE teachers or faculty • For efforts identified in the approved local plan that align with MN Goals for CTE

You will schedule a 90-minute WebEx, ITV session or meet with us face-to-face to present your plans. • Plans are then approved by MDE and MnSCU staff and you receive an award letter as soon as the US Department of Education releases funds to the state (July).
