High-quality CTE: planning for a COVID-19-impacted school year

As the country continues to grapple with the impacts of the [Coronavirus Disease 2019] COVID-19 pandemic, [career and technical education] CTE stakeholders around the nation are thinking ahead to what education might look like in the future. Whether schools and postsecondary institutions will be able to open fully for the next school year using social distancing methods, utilize a blended approach or continue with remote learning exclusively, there are significant implications for CTE programs, students and educators. This guide is designed to help CTE stakeholders identify the key considerations, questions and emerging best practices that should shape future planning. It is important to note, however, that every educational institution will have different needs and be operating under different state and local guidelines. Accordingly, this document should be seen as a tool for, not an arbitrator of, the difficult decisions that CTE leaders will make in the coming months.
