Advisory Committees
- By law, all CTE programs should be evaluated annually.
- The evaluation guidelines are available on the on the CTE
page of the TEA website.
- An industry advisory committee meets with CTE program staff to assist in the evaluation and assessment
of these programs.
- The membership of an advisory committee should include:
- members of local businesses and industries
- educators
- a school board member (to keep the board informed on what is going on in current CTE programs)
- parents of students who are members of special populations
- The advisory committee should be as demographically diverse as the community it serves
- The advisory committee should meet a minimum of twice a year; once in the fall and once
in the spring.
- In the fall, an initial meeting is held where data from the previous year is reviewed.
- In the spring, the advisory members, our business and industry community partners, parents, and students
meet and evaluate the CTE programs from the year.
- What if our CTE program does not have an advisory committee?
