  11. Focus Groups

  12. Findings • Declining enrollment- suggesting that the programs are not providing meaningful exposure to the full range of postsecondary education and career options • Although decreasing enrollment these programs are highly valued due their ability to engage students and promote academic success. • Counselors are supportive of the program but there is sometimes reluctance to refer students because it might compromise their A-G Requirements • Lack of staff planning time • The need to shift to a demand driven program rather than “seat time”

  13. Findings Continued 1- Create stronger ties with academic instruction with counseling and guidance functions. 2- Ensure meaningful input from industry on skills needed in the workplace, standards, and curriculum as well as direct mentoring of students and educators. 3- Promote stronger linkages among public institutions to ensure system coherence and flexibility 4- Demonstrate how CTE promotes student success; align data collection and reporting systems to track system performance; make the benefits of CTE more visible.
