  3. Perkins IV: The Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-270) • Direction and funding to support continuous improvement in career and technical education (CTE) at secondary and postsecondary • Accountability for results and program improvement at all levels • Increased coordination within the CTE system • Stronger academic and technical integration • Connections between secondary and postsecondary education • Links to business and industry

  4. Carl D Perkins Act 2006 Themes in the law are reflected in Minnesota’s CTE Goals • Designing & Implementing Programs of Study • Effectively Utilize Employer, Community, and Education Partnerships • Improve Service to Special Populations • Provide a Continuum of Service Provisions for Enabling Student Transitions • Sustain the Consortium of Secondary and Postsecondary Institutions

  5. Goal 1: Designing & Implementing Programs of Study • Programs of Study in all areas where applicable • Involvement of teachers, faculty, counselors, administration • Professional Development • Inclusion of Adult Learners (FastTrack Program) • Opportunities for Early College Credit • Improvement of Academic and Technical Skills of CTE learners • Assessment of the Programs using valid and reliable assessments • All Aspects of the Industry

  6.

  7. Goal 3: Improve Service to Special Populations • Access to Programs of Study that are Nontraditional by gender • Strategies and outcomes to overcome barriers for special populations • High Skill, High Wage, and High Demand Occupations that lead to self-sufficiency • Connect local, regional, and state-wide initiatives that support special populations • Non-discrimination policy • Consistent expectations for all learners

  10. A New Consortium Structure • In Minnesota, Perkins funds are distributed in separate secondary and postsecondary allocations to consortia that include at least one secondary district (or consortium) and at least one eligible postsecondary institution. • Each Perkins consortium submits a single joint local plan signed by both secondary and postsecondary representatives. This is approved by staff from both the Minnesota Department of Education and the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities Office of the Chancellor.

  11. CTE: Secondary and Postsecondary Requirements • Program Approval • Secondary Teacher Licensure • College Faculty and Instructor Credentialing

Secondary CTE Licensure Minnesota Rules 3505 • All CTE teachers utilizing Federal (Perkins) and Local Levy Dollars MUST hold a valid CTE license • http://education.state.mn.us/MDE/Academic_Excellence/Career_Technical_Education/Forms_Resources/index.html (Table C - Table of Programs and Licenses) • Common Course Catalogue (new for FY11)

  18. Postsecondary Cohort Model Minnesota is one of a handful of states to use a cohort model. The use of cohorts aligns with other system initiatives and reporting. For example, the FY2005-2007 cohort includes students entering in FY2005 and tracked for three years: 2005, 2006, and 2007.

  19. Secondary: CTE Levy The CTE Levy is a permissive levy that does not require a public vote. This levy is a set amount depending on the population of the enrollment district and is approved by the local school board. The Levy can only be used for approved CTE programs where there is an appropriately licensed CTE teacher.
