Welcome to the ASCCC’s 2017 Career and Technical Education (CTE) Leadership Institute!
This past year has been a time of opportunity, excitement, and intensity with the focus on our CTE programs through the rollout of the $200 million Strong Workforce Program to our regions and colleges. At this institute, we will pres-ent several sessions intended both to inform you regarding the statewide work of the Strong Workforce Program and to provide opportunities to engage with colleagues about local efforts. While the Strong Workforce Program is of key importance and has a dedicated strand of breakouts this year, the CTE leader-ship Institute has much more to offer than just discussions of that effort. The CTE Leadership Committee has brought together a diverse program with pre-sentations divided into three additional strands: curriculum, student services, and leadership and governance. In order to meet students’ needs and develop successful programs we need to collaborate across programs and across areas of the college. It was with this in mind that we developed our program to pro-vide opportunities for information gathering and engagement of all faculty, regardless of discipline.
We hope that this institute will help all attendees to understand the impor-tance of connecting CTE programs and faculty to the work of the academic senate at both the state and local levels. The senate is the official faculty voice in academic and professional matters in the California community colleges, but we cannot exercise that voice on behalf of CTE programs effectively with-out CTE faculty participation. Our primary goal for this institute is therefore to give our CTE liaisons information and training that you can take back to your colleges to help engage your CTE faculty in these discussions at the local level and to help them connect with your local academic senate to create a strong, unified faculty voice at your institution.
We look forward to working with all of you throughout the next two days. Welcome, and enjoy the event.
Lorraine Slattery-Farrell, ASCCC CTE Leadership Chair.

At the recommendation of the California Community College Board of Gover-nors, the governor and the legislature approved the Strong Workforce Pro-gram, allocating an annual investment of $200 million to spur career technical education in the California Community College System. This general session will provide an update on the work accomplished to date and the vital role fac-ulty should play in the implementation of the program. Eighty-three percent of the allocated funds are based on CTE FTES, unemployment rates, and regional job openings. Starting in 2017-18, 17% will be used to incentivize a focus on student completion and employment outcomes. This session will describe the new funding model, including how student outcomes will be calculated, how resources will be allocated, and how colleges can ensure they get full credit for positive outcomes. Attendees will hear from faculty who advised the Chancel-lor’s Office on the model and will have ample opportunity to ask questions.

Salon I
Curtis Stage, CTE Leadership Committee, FacilitatorKathy Booth, WestEd
CTE faculty are familiar with the arduous task of searching for labor market data to support curriculum, program review, and other local processes. With the inception of the Strong Workforce Program, statewide, regional, and local resources are now available for gathering simple and effective data.

Jonathon Krupp, CTE Leadership Committee, FacilitatorGregory Duncan, CIO, San Jose City CollegeJulie Pehkonen, Regional Consortium ChairLynn Shaw, Chancellor’s Office
With the current focus on CTE as an essential resource for economic develop-ment and career advancement in our communities statewide, sustainable funding for CTE programs is necessary.

Curriculum Strand: The Evolution of Programs: Determining Viability and Processes for Revitalization
Salon II
John Freitas, CTE Leadership Committee, FacilitatorWheeler North, San Diego Miramar CollegeThais Winsome, Mission College
The Strong Workforce Program has put a spotlight on the need for CTE pro-grams to be responsive to industry needs. Whether colleges are developing new CTE programs or evaluating and updating existing programs as part of these efforts, each college must have a program viability process that is both effective and collegial. This session will provide participants with strategies to consider when reviewing programs.

Counseling Strand: Better Together—Student Services Faculty and Instructional Faculty Working Together to Promote Student Success
Salon VI
Robert Cabral, CTE Leadership Committee, FacilitatorLorraine Slattery-Farrell, CTE Leadership CommitteeKarie White, CTE Counseling Faculty, Mt San Jacinto CollegeEscarlet Wirth, CTE Counseling Faculty, Mt San Jacinto College
Developing collaborative relationships between student services and instruc-tion leads to a more holistic approach to meeting the needs of the diverse student populations our colleges serve. This interactive session will showcase some effective models of collaboration and discuss strategies for implementa-tion on local campuses.
Leadership and Governance Strand: Code Alignment Project
Salon V
Toni Parsons, CTE Leadership Committee, FacilitatorKathy Booth, WestEd
The Strong Workforce Program recommendations include the need for better data, but better data requires better language alignment. The California com-munity colleges use Taxonomy of Programs (TOP) and System for Award Man-agement (SAM) codes, federal education uses Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP), and labor market uses Standard Occupational Classification (SOC). Such varying terminology can make data collection inefficient and sometimes unhelpful. This session will review the Code Alignment Project and how attendees can get their colleges involved. Better data equals better programs, which equals better education for our students.

The Academic Senate for California Community Colleges is legally recognized by the Board of Governors as the representative of faculty in the formula-tion of state policies related to academic and professional matters. Beyond its legal role in statewide policy matters, the Academic Senate also provides sup-port for the work of faculty at the local level through a variety of means, such as professional development resources, professional standards and guidance through its papers, and technical assistance services for local senates and curriculum committees. However, the efforts of the Academic Senate depend on faculty from local colleges becoming involved with its work. Come to this breakout session to learn more about the Academic Senate and how you can become involved in statewide work.
