CTE Program Management
About
Career & Technical Education programs lead students to real jobs in several different areas of study. You can look up job projections, educational requirements, and general list of job duties for Colorado jobs at the Labor Market Information website.
- You may also view a list of CTE programs offered at CCD.
- The Colorado Community College System has also created a document with general information about CTE programs in Colorado.
Plans of Study
Career & Technical Education programs have additional administrative requirements as per Colorado, which are administered through the Colorado Community College System. Each CTE program must have a plan of study, which we here at CCD embed in Degree Works. They are often also listed on the program’s homepage. A how-to guide can be found on the CCCS home page.
Five-Year Review
CTE programs must also undergo a five-year review process through CCCS.
VE–135
Additionally, CTE programs are required to report their enrollment, graduation, and placement rates every year — called the VE-135. CCD’s five-year completion rate and our placement rate is found at the Colorado CTE reports website.
- Review CCD’s procedure on VE-135
- View the Student Graduation Form: the form that all CTE programs should use to collect social media information on their graduating students.
CTE Performance Targets
All CTE programs are held to the commitments within the Perkins grant, even if they do not receive Perkins funding.
CCD CTE programs are also committed to the following: Five-Year Goals, One-Year Goals, Improvement Plan
Performance Metrics
Each CTE program has a performance metric that is issued every year that indicates a breakdown of its retention, graduation, and placement rates both overall and by specific sub-populations. This can be further described in the administrator’s handbook and is distributed to the chair and dean of the program every summer.
Resources
All CTE programs must adhere to the administrator’s handbook guidelines and to the advisory committee guide. Advisory committee membership, by-laws and meeting minutes must be uploaded every year to the G drive.
