2011-12 Secondary CTE Regional Standards Workshops |
|
The Colorado Community College System (CCCS) will be in your vicinity this year with nine full-day Regional Career and Technical Education Workshops. The purpose of these workshops is to provide an opportunity for all secondary CTE administrators, educators, and counselors to meet with state Career and Technical Education staff. The focus of the regional workshops will be the alignment of academics, common core standards, and CTSO events with CTE programs, Plans of Study (POS), and Individual Career and Academic Plans (ICAP). Participants will gain important knowledge of the academics that already exist within their CTE programs and the need to intentionally teach to these standards. These are excellent workshops for both new and experienced CTE instructors and administrators, as well as school administrators and counselors. If you’d like to find out more about the workshops listed below, please review the attached flyer and agenda. If you’re interested in registering right now, please do so at http://www.rsvpbook.com/event.php?437465. Registration is free of charge, but space is limited so register early!
