職業技術教育 (CTE) affords opportunities to all students interested in acquiring the academic, technical and employability skills necessary to succeed in post-high school education and/or high-demand careers. We envision a sustainable future in which Hawaiʻi graduates can live そして thrive in Hawaiʻi by being prepared to succeed in high-skill, high-wage そして high-demand occupations.

The mission of CTE is to serve our schools そして the greater community by designing quality CTE programs that meet the needs of Hawaiʻi’s labor workforce—inclusive of new pathways そして programs of study, industry standards, work-based learning, industry recognized certifications, dual credit opportunities そして professional development—as well as to ensure equity of access, そして increase participation rates そして successful outcomes.

Career Pathways

CTEの背景

The impetus for expanding the CTE Career Pathways was directly related to:

• の通過 パーキンス V, which provided clearer language on CTE course rigor そして alignment of secondary そして post-secondary education with the workforce. 
• 以前の CTE コース インベントリの結果では、77 コースのうち 44 コースのみが業界標準を利用していることがわかりました。
• Uncertainty over whether CTE offerings were vertically aligned with post-high school education and fully aligned with Hawaiʻi economic そして workforce priorities.  

An alignment study utilized state economic そして workforce data to determine high-skill, high-wage そして high-demand occupations for Hawaiʻi along with the stateʻs economic priorities そして initiatives. The results were used to inform the selection of CTE programs to meet the needs of the alignment study. This led to the expansion from six CTE Career Pathways to 13 そして the redesign of the CTE programs of study.

The redesigned Career Pathways include:

• Revision of courses, program of study industry course standards, そして recommended benchmark student learning activities to support deeper learning そして the acquisition of academic, technical and employability skills.
• A robust approach to work-based learning (WBL) consisting of embedded WBL benchmark activities that are aligned to standards そして a capstone WBL course for each program of study.

Career Pathways provide an ideal organizing tool at all educational levels—kindergarten through college—to guide career exploration そして planning activities, focus teaching そして learning, そして connect education with relevant, real-world activities.

How can Career Pathways be used?

の Career Pathways are a tool for career awareness, exploration, preparation そして training for all students K-12. Introducing students to broad career pathways, そして the numerous career clusters そして occupations within, expands their career possibilities. Older students may also find the interest inventory test (RIASEC（PDF）) helpful in exploring Career Pathway options.

At the secondary そして post-secondary levels, Career Pathways provide industry standards that meet business そして industry requirements.

Pathways そして Programs of Study by District そして School (Google Sheet)

Students may attain mastery of all specific Career Pathway course standards by completing a Program of Study, which spans four years at the high school level. Programs of Study are designed to:  

• Integrate academic standards, career and workplace skills, そして specific business そして industry validated standards; 
• Incorporate work-based learning, industry recognized credentials, そして early post-high school opportunities where feasible そして appropriate; そして 
• Prepare students for further education and/or employment.

学習プログラム

Hawaiʻi State Department of 教育 has 13 Career Pathways そして 学習プログラム:

栄誉認定証明書の要件   

In addition to meeting the requirements for the Hawaiʻi high school diploma, a student must meet the following requirements with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 そして above: 

• 承認された CTE プログラムまたは学習プログラムの 2 つのコース シーケンスを完了します。
• 2 つのコースからなる一連のコースの各コースで B 以上の成績を取得します。
• 対応するプログラムまたは学習プログラムのパフォーマンスベースの評価で熟練度を満たすか、それを超えます。

The CTE Performance-Based Assessments (PBAs) evaluate students’ abilities to apply the academic and technical skills そして knowledge they have learned in their CTE Programs of Study. The PBA is conducted by a school or by a school district. The PBA includes three components:

1. Technical writing.
2. 口頭発表。
3. パフォーマンス評価。

パスウェイ諮問委員会

Pathway Advisory Council (PAC) members advise the Department on the skills, knowledge, tools, technology そして tasks needed in today’s careers. The PAC objectives are to:

• Provide industry-specific expertise to inform student technical skills learning in CTE programs of study そして the associated industry standards.
• Create linkages between industry, high school そして post-high school education.
• Enhance the industry and technical skills experiences of CTE educators.
• Provide collaborative opportunities for input そして consultation.

Career and Technical Student Organizations

Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs) are an integral component of CTE classroom curriculum そして instruction. They develop employability and career skills by engaging students in applied learning experiences. 

CTSOs enhance learning by providing opportunities for contextual instruction, leadership そして personal development, そして real world application. Through activities, programs そして competitive events, CTSOs help guide students in selecting a career path or program of study, そして provide opportunities to gain the skills そして abilities needed to be successful in those careers. In addition, students have opportunities to hold leadership positions at the local, state そして national levels そして attend leadership development conferences to network with other students そして business そして industry partners.

The Hawaiʻi State Department of 教育 currently has five CTSOs:

1. デカ
2. Family, Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA)
3. FFA（旧称：Future Farmers of America）
4. HOSA — 未来の医療専門家
5. スキルUSA

RIASEC Test for Career Pathways

RIASEC codes are a way of classifying people according to their interests so that they can be matched with appropriate careers. The system was developed by Dr. John L. Holland, an academic psychologist. Dr. Holland’s theory proposes that there are six broad areas into which all careers can be classified. These same six areas can be used to describe people, their personalities そして interests. For instance, “Building” careers are those that involve working with tools or machinery (e.g., carpenter, mechanic or airline pilot). People with building interests typically like working with their hands そして creating a tangible product.

予備役将校訓練課程（JROTC）

の 予備役将校訓練課程（JROTC） is a four-year CTE elective program of instruction cost-shared by the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force そして Marine Corps. Two consecutive JROTC courses fulfill the CTE two-credit requirement for a high school diploma. 

The curriculum is designed to teach high school students the value of citizenship, leadership, personal responsibility そして teamwork, while instilling self esteem, self discipline そして a sense of accomplishment. JROTC cadets earn advanced rank when enlisting into any branch of the military, そして advanced opportunities for federal/military academy appointments そして ROTC college scholarships.​ JROTC is not a military recruiting program; cadets will not incur any military obligation upon completion of the program.

JROTC is a service to our nation, in that it provides cadets the motivation そして skills to improve physical fitness, remain drug free, think critically そして creatively, communicate effectively, work as a team member, graduate from high school, pursue meaningful careers, そして become successful citizens.
