CTE programs play critical roles in developing a qualified workforce and are an essential part of our education system. Do your Members of Congress realize that CTE is helping students learn the knowledge and skills needed to compete for the high-wage, high-demand jobs of today and tomorrow? Do they know that CTE retrains adults to help them re-enter the workforce? CTE is vital to turning around this economy and ensuring that every student has the education and expertise to succeed in the workforce. Make sure your CTE voice is heard on Capitol Hill by attending the 2011 National Policy Seminar March 7-9.
