Key Points
This resolution officially supports naming February as 'Career and Technical Education Month' to highlight programs that teach students specific job skills.
It recognizes that about 12 million students are currently learning trades and technical skills in high schools and community colleges across the country.
The goal is to encourage parents and teachers to see these programs as a great way for students to get high-paying jobs without necessarily needing a four-year college degree.
The resolution points out that by 2031, nearly one-third of all jobs will require some training after high school but not a full bachelor's degree.
