Gender Equity in Career Technical Education Webinar
Thursday, April 11, 2024 1:00 PM EST
On behalf of Assistant Secretary Dr. Amy Loyd, we invite you to participate in the Office of Career Technical and Adult Education’s (OCTAE) 2024 Equity Summit Webinar Series entitled Equity in Career Connected Education: Advancing Economic Mobility. This series was developed from the 2022 Advancing Equity in Career-Connected Education Summit (Summit). T
his event was an important component of the Department of Education’s ongoing efforts to implement Executive Order 13985, Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government.
One of the goals of the Summit was to identify themes and topics across those issue areas for further exploration, such as data, state or local roles, the role of industry, or existing systemic challenges such as misaligned incentives in adult education, career technical education, community colleges, and correctional education.
Based on what we learned from the Summit, the webinars will focus on dual enrollment, digital literacy, career pathways, gender equity, and other areas. The next webinar in the series will be held on April 11, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. ET. This webinar will focus on gender equity in career technical education programs.
Please register here for the webinar.
We hope you will join us!
