Posted by Robin Painovich on 01/12/12 in Blog
In school districts and colleges alike, educational and financial challenges demand our attention as we strive to develop a skilled and nimble workforce. It is our responsibility to stay on top of economic and education trends impacting CTE while making connections with people who can help us do our jobs better.
Today’s programs require a firm grasp of results-oriented action plans, useful technology, purposeful communications, and measurable data – and all those solutions are under one roof in Austin February 6 – 8.
This conference is a great value packed into just two and a half days. Here’s a few top reasons why you should attend:
- Two renown keynote speakers: Colleen Barrett, President Emeritus of Southwest Airlines and Darrell Andrews, educational consultant, life coach and author
- CTE Training Institute: Professional development training designed to provide new and experienced CTE directors and counselors with tools to lead a quality CTE program.
