Feedback from Stakeholders• CTE training and A.A.S degree graduates,
although technically skilled, may be limited in career advancement.
• The A.A.S degree is no longer a terminal degree.
• A critical need exists for a baccalureate degree pathway for technical program graduates that integrates with Career Technical Education and 4-year universities
