Committee approves CTE definition updates to align with federal Perkins rules and expand work-based options
The committee recommended permission to publish amendments that change Marylands CTE 'concentrator' and 'completer' definitions to require two courses (not a third sequential course) and to add a route recognizing 250 hours of supervised career-connected learning; the move aligns state reporting with Perkins V and expands access to work-based options.
