2026 CACTE CareerTech Summit

Do you have a bold idea, but need help with how to fund it?  This panel of Innovations in CTE grant recipients will deliver highlights of their projects designed to improve quality and expand access to CTE.  We will share tips for educators and administrators trying to put together a proposal likely to be funded that highlights partnership and bold thinking for the benefit of learners.  You will leave with ideas of projects that may be replicated using your institution's Perkins grant funds or the seeds of a new project idea that could be built in time for the next Innovations in CTE grant cycle.  Examples showcased include program quality expansions in welding, health care, manufacturing, engineering, and construction from small, medium, and large school districts across the state.
