Extending the Reach of the Career and Technical Education (CTE) Research Network – Research Network Lead 2.0
PERIOD:
TO
The Career and Technical Education (CTE) Research Network 2.0 works to foster a learning community of CTE researchers and to move the CTE field forward by conducting and expanding the use of rigorous research focused on CTE. The Network will work to increase the number of studies examining the impact of CTE policies, programs, and practices on student outcomes.

Together with colleagues at the American Institutes for Research and multiple institutions across the country, the network's areas of focus include: 1.) Strengthening the capacity of researchers and practitioners to conduct, use, and share rigorous and causal CTE research, 2.) Improving coherence among CTE research projects, 3.) Identifying new research priorities, and sharing strategies to address research challenges, and 4.) Engaging stakeholders in network activities and sharing findings to inform efforts to improve CTE programs and student outcomes.
