This session introduces a practical, replicable model for designing cross‑credited CTE courses that are both industry‑authentic and academically rigorous. Using the open-source REVIT program as an example, participants will see how industry competencies, CTE frameworks, and academic standards can be aligned to create coherent, multi‑credit courses. The session highlights strategies for finding natural academic connections and designing tasks where technical and academic learning reinforce one another. Attendees will leave with tools, examples, and a clear process they can adapt to any pathway.
