The Association for Career and Technical Education (ACTE) is the nation’s largest not-for-profit education association dedicated to the advancement of education that prepares youth and adults for successful careers. It provides advocacy, public awareness and access to information, professional development and tools that enable members to be successful and effective leaders. Founded in 1926, ACTE has more than 29,000 members including teachers, counselors and administrators at the middle school, high school and postsecondary levels.
Join ACTE or renew your ACTE membership for $60 per year, or only 16 cents per day. With the current economic climate and the new policymakers on Capitol Hill, now is the time to shine a spotlight on CTE.
Registration is now open for the 2009 ACTE Annual Convention and Career Tech Expo! Attend the premier professional development event for career and technical education professionals, this year in Music City USA.
