masterclass DESCRIPTION
Career and Technical Education holds the promise to significantly transform student outcomes, but only if the total CTE delivery model is implemented with fidelity. This means employing quality classroom and laboratory instruction. But it also means availing work-based learning opportunities and participation in CTE student organizations to every CTE student. It means genuine community engagement and academic integration. Implemented with fidelity, the CTE delivery model promises enhanced student outcomes related to engagement, transition and achievement. Employing the total CTE delivery model is the key to improving CTE.
