After 24 years in the K-12 education space, Achieve has shut its doors. Read the statement from Michael Cohen, President of Achieve here.
Our website www.achieve.org will remain available through December 31, 2020.
Former Achieve science team members have founded the NextGenScience project at WestEd where they will continue working with educators and partners across the nation to improve the quality of science education. Please visit their website and @NextGenScience to learn more about their work. They will continue to serve as stewards of the NGSS, sharing resources with the field through the nextgenscience.org website, NGSSNow newsletter, and @OfficialNGS.
All students should graduate from high school ready for college, careers, and citizenship.
Building a Strong Relationship between Competency-Based Pathways and Career Technical Education
In 2015, Achieve partnered with the National Association of State Directors of Career Technical Education Consortium (NASDCTEc) to convene state leaders to discuss the intersections between CBP and career and technical education (CTE) systems. This brief identifies opportunities for collaboration, integration, and strengthened relationships between CBP and CTE leaders. It explores the leverage points and challenges to integrating CTE into a CBP system, and where possible, offers examples of how states and local districts have started the journey to do so. Key questions are provided to help state and local leaders consider how CTE is, can, and should be a part of their CBP strategies.
