From Classroom to Credential: Designing CTE Programs With Tangible Outcomes

Wednesday August 5, 2026 10:00am - 10:45am PDT

Meeting Room #11

CTE programs have the potential to do more than deliver credit — they can deliver credentials. This session explores how to intentionally design Career & Technical Education pathways around industry-recognized certifications that provide students with tangible workforce advantages.Participants will learn how to align curriculum, pacing, assessment, and classroom systems to credential outcomes while maintaining authentic, high-quality learning experiences.
