    Summary

    It is the mission of the NJDOE, in offering this continuation program, to provide a quality, research-based, alternate route provisional teacher preparation program that addresses the specific needs of CTE provisional teachers in order to best prepare them for the 21st Century CTE classroom, thereby improving CTE teacher retention and, ultimately, improving CTE program performance.   
     
    In support of this mission, the NJDOE developed the following five State Goals to be accomplished through Year 7 of the CTEPTP pilot program:
     
    • Goal 1: Operate the CTEPTP pilot program, which addresses the unique needs of career and technical education teacher candidates (CTE teacher candidates) who have a broad range of subject matter expertise as well as diverse backgrounds in educational attainment, formal training, and employment experience.
    • Goal 2: Evaluate CTEPTP pilot program to determine its effectiveness in preparing CTE teacher candidates to deliver CTE programs that will prepare students for college and careers.
    • Goal 3: Increase the number of CTE provisional teachers electing to continue their postsecondary education by offering college credit options for successfully completing the CTEPTP pilot program.
    • Goal 4: Conclude direct instruction by August 31, 2017, and conclude the CTEPTP program by September 30, 2017, including submission to the Office of Career Readiness of editable electronic (using Microsoft Office products) versions of all relevant documents and products created through the grant program.
    • Goal 5: Measure retention rates of CTEPTP pilot program completers to determine if the retention rates meet or exceed state and national retention rates of new teachers.

Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006, which requires states to establish initial teacher preparation for CTE teachers that will: 
    • Promote the integration of coherent and rigorous academic content standards and career and technical education curricula;
    • Increase the number of teachers that meet teacher certification or licensure requirements;
    • Increase the knowledge of academic and industry standards of CTE teachers;
    • Encourage applied learning that contributes to the academic and career and technical knowledge of CTE students;
    • Provide CTE teachers with the knowledge and skills needed to work with and improve instruction for special populations; and
    • Assist CTE teachers in accessing and utilizing student data and data from assessments.
