CTE 101: Counselors - CTE 101 

ACTE has announced the launch of CTE 101, a new microsite designed to support staff and partners who are new to career and technical education (CTE). HOWEVER, please consider reviewing this as there is a PLETHORA of information helpful to NEW and veteran CDCs as well as School Counselors, CTE Teachers, Parents, and community - this site is a MUST to BOOKMART! This site DELIVERS!

The first section, CTE 101 , while it is marketed for School Counselors, sponsored by Xello, offers YOU valuable and essential information on:

• CTE programs, 

• Perkins funding, and 

• career exploration! 

As you explore ACTE's CTE 101 , note the Career Exploration and Planning Tools, where you find NC's "NCcareers.org" listed as a resource. Take some additional time to explore the State Resources with added focus on North Carolina!  

Career and technical education, or CTE, is education that directly prepares students for high-wage, high-demand careers. CTE covers many different fields, including health care, information technology, advanced manufacturing, hospitality and management and many more. CTE encompasses many different types of education, from classroom learning to certification programs to work-based learning opportunities outside the classroom.
