CTE Program Development

All Career and Technical Education programs of study undergo essentially the same process for development and implementation:

• Partners identify labor market needs based on advisory group recommendations and the local needs assessments.
• Partners determine whether or not adopting the Statewide Framework works for their community.
• Working with the teacher, District and the Regional Coordinator, the partners help outline how the program will meet the six required POS elements.
• Once it is determined that a program is ready to apply, the Regional Coordinator (RC) initiates the application in the ODE Information System database.
• Teachers/instructors and Regional Coordinators work together to complete and submit the program application to ODE.
• ODE approves the program application for up to four years, based on the statewide renewal schedule.
• Teachers/instructors–with the help and guidance of industry partners and advisors, Regional Coordinators and CTE Deans, other administrators, parents, students, and colleagues–implement the CTE POS with fidelity.
