The impact of career and technical education courses changes lives and will inspire a workforce for the 21st Century.  This guide will serve as a valuable resource to build quality programs that provide sustainable, systemic change in districts that advance Wisconsin's workforce and economy through education."  Tony Evers, PhD, State Superintendent
