Summary:
The Career Technical Education Incentive Grant (CTEIG) Incentive grant is a one year grant requiring 2:1 matching funds. Funds must be spent on the eleven elements of a high quality Career Technical Education (CTE) program; Leadership at all levels, high-quality curriculum and instruction; career exploration and guidance; student support and student leadership development; industry partnerships; system alignment and coherence; effective organizational design; system responsiveness to changing economic demands; skilled faculty and professional development; evaluation, accountability and continuous improvement; and CTE promotion, outreach, marketing, and communication.

Mt. Diablo Unified was awarded $5.79 million dollars over the past five years (2015-2020) to support development, expansion and enhancement of Career Technical Education (CTE) programs.

Staff requests approval to apply for $1.2 million dollars for 2020-2021 and plan to spend funds to continue supporting pathway development, work based learning opportunities, career exploration, purchase CTE equipment, supplies and material, and staff to support programming. Actual grant amount will be determined based on matching funds and funding available through CDE.
