Assisting our Students in exploring, planning for, and training for their future occupation is an integral part of a child’s education. Career and Technical Education courses and activities provide students with those opportunities, as well as, a direct application of the math, science, communication, ascetic, and social skills being taught at each grade level.

Joining NYSACTE provides you an opportunity to be part of planning developing and influencing the future of Career and Technical Education in New York State.  It will insure that you are kept up to date on the latest developments at both the State and National level. In addition, NYSACTE provides opportunities for professional development and mentoring.  Representatives from NYSED and NYSUT sit on our advisory board to ensure that our members are up to date and have a voice in on-going developments.
