Advisory Committee
What is an Advisory Committee?
A CTE Program Advisory Committee is a group whose experience and abilities represent a cross-section of a particular occupational area. Program Advisory Committee assists educators in establishing, operating, and evaluating CTE programs. In this role, they serve the needs of the students, the community, and the business/industry partners and help to ensure relevance and quality. One of the most common characteristics associated with quality programs in CTE is the strong relationships they have with their business partners. Local advisory committees are often the most effective means of developing and strengthening such partnerships
