Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21^st Century Act

The federal Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (Perkins V) was signed into law on July 31, 2018. This bipartisan measure reauthorized the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 (Perkins IV) and continued nearly $1.3 billion in federal funding annually for CTE programs for our nation鈥檚 youth and adults.

Perkins V represents an important opportunity to expand opportunities for every student to explore, choose, and follow career and technical education programs of study and career pathways.听

水果派AV解说鈥檚 2019-20 federal Perkins V funding is nearly $57 million, which is being administered through a that was submitted to the U.S. Department of Education in April 2019. The purpose of funding under the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century (Perkins V) Act is to more fully develop the academic knowledge and technical and employability skills of secondary education students and postsecondary education students who elect to enroll in career and technical education programs by:

• Increasing employment opportunities for subgroups and special populations;
• Including preparation in high-skill, high-wage, or in-demand occupations;
• Integrating rigorous and challenging academic and CTE instruction that link secondary and postsecondary education;
• Providing technical assistance that improves the quality of CTE faculty, teachers, counselors, and administrators;
• Supporting partnerships between secondary, postsecondary, local workforce boards, business, and industry; and
• Providing individuals with opportunities and skills to keep the U.S. competitive.

The draft plan includes changes for Perkins applicants including the requirement that a Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment (CLNA) must be conducted prior to application, more detailed accountability using program-level data, and a new program quality performance indicator that will track the percentage of CTE students in 水果派AV解说-approved programs participating in work-based learning experiences. The Department has developed a CLNA template and guidance for applicants.
