Description of Proposed Guidance Document Changes
The purpose of this guidance document is to establish state accreditation standards in order to open new pathways for programs to meet the statutory definition of CTE. State accreditation standards for CTE do not currently exist. Historically, Virginia school divisions have deferred to national, rather than state accreditation standards, limiting flexibility and adversely impacting opportunities for student engagement. Divisions are strongly encouraged to adopt state CTE accreditation standards in order to effectively create pathways of students to high skill, high demand careers and post-secondary success. Accordingly, the net effect of this guidance document is deregulatory as it will allow more opportunities for school divisions to qualify a program as CTE.
