Key Points
- This resolution officially recognizes February as a time to celebrate career and technical education (CTE) programs in schools across the country.
- It highlights that over 11 million students are currently learning trade and technical skills in high schools, technical centers, and community colleges.
- The goal is to encourage students, parents, and teachers to see these programs as a great way to prepare for high-paying jobs in fields like construction, healthcare, and technology.
- Lawmakers point out that by 2031, about one-third of all jobs will require some training after high school but not necessarily a four-year college degree.
- This is a ceremonial action, which means it does not change any laws or provide new money, but it shows that Congress supports these types of learning programs.
