New CTE Legislation to Address Critical Workforce Development Gaps

The new House bills will address key concerns from manufacturers to improve both awareness and training for available manufacturing career paths, including:

  • Greater student and parent skilled trade program awareness
  • Greater student career exploration
  • Real world manufacturing experience for educators
  • Boosting CTE instructor recruitment efforts and easing unnecessary restrictions
