Georgia Is Facing Another Issue of the State Trying to Allow Technical College and Adult Education to Take Over CTE Department at the State Level What are your concerns for your Region/ Division specifically? Georgia is facing another issue of the state trying to allow technical college and adult education to take over CTE department at the state level. Continue to build membership. Challenge with so many non-unified states. Concerns about the definition of a Perkins Concentrator (some states have defined this differently in legislation) Securing Partnerships Division Award Nominations and Submissions. Unity. Maintaining relevance in the CTE World Decline in programs due to lack of teachers Member engagement Membership Membership- Health Science Funding at state and federal levels. Membership retention Membership Return on Investment Ag Ed programs are not seen as being diverse and inclusive to all populations. High demand for Agriculture teachers nationwide There are over 8,000 agriculture teachers who belong to NAAE but only about 3,800 belong to ACTE. Membership, Membership, Membership!! Having available budget to provide stipends for the T&I Division award winners to assist in attending VISION to receive their awards. Texas Louisiana New Mexico What are the implications for ACTE? If this passes CTE will become a component of Technical College System and will limit professional development for public schools as monies will be distributed by TCSG and not local school systems. Diversity of Divisions is a strength of ACTE. Hard to build membership with state unification. Legislative Advocacy Meaningful contacts for both ACTE & the eTED Division. Increased participation by division members and those who might nominate a candidate. Possible decrease in membership Loss of membership Loss of members Loss of members and/or inability to increase members If I am able to recruit the NYS Health Science educators as members that will increase the total membership as well as create and active division Loss of funding could result in program closures and staff reductions…which could lead to membership loss for ACTE. Activity and revenue Membership numbers and new members May limit the number of diverse populations that enter the profession and join the organization. May limit program growth and the number of students that can be introduced to careers in Food, Ag and Natural Resources and therefore limit teachers serving CTE ACTE membership is missing out and dues money is not being collected. Lack of a separate Division for this vital group will diminish that ability of ACTE to reach out to these teachers and work with DECA. Heightened awareness of the CTE community on the successes of the T&I Division members who are deserving of this recognition. CTAT is diligently working toward unifying the various ACTE factions, and when the unification happens, ACTE should expect an increase in membership. Marketing Division has been added. Texas will be providing conference services for the Law and Public Service teachers at the Summer conference in July. Continued membership with TIVA Quality Association Standards (QAS) Quality Association Standards (QAS) In what capacity can ACTE assist in addressing this issue? It is requested for ACTE to draft a letter opposing this merge of departments to the Georgia state leaders. Continue to dialogue and develop strategies to encourage unification and continue to build membership. Continued legislative presence Help with following up on contacts and providing ideas to help secure partnerships. During the time the awards window is open, updates could be sent to VP’s confirming specific category nominations. ACTE continues incredible things to help the FACS community to know of their support and help the FACS world Continue to work on teacher and member recruitment. Work with Jan Bowers and USDA grant. Sharing best practices and innovative ideas Helping the division identify member value. Our division competes with many other counseling organizations that provide similar resources. Advice and guidance I have ideas, just need some help putting them together and also to bounce ideas Continue advocacy efforts Make certain a personal, not generic, e-mail is a follow-up Make certain the focus is on this as an organization Help us send the broader message to all populations that we are here for every teacher. Build capacity at ACTE conferences, events, etc. for students studying to become AE and CTE teachers. Let’s create a ‘pre-teacher’ recognition program, event for future teachers/ACTE members. We feel that many members join ACTE based on the quality of the ACTE at their state level. We must help states be more successful in servicing all divisions at the state level. Help with reaching out to past members that are no longer members of the division. Survey as to why the no longer belong. Encourage them to rejoin or recruit others Assisting the T&I President in exploring innovative ways of funding these stipends for the recognition of these individuals. Region IV VP met with Executive Director at the Texas Career Education Conference. I will continue to work with the Board on adding additional teacher groups to CTAT Through conversations with ACTE Leadership TIVA organization is adding all of their paid memberships to ACTE with no cost to their members. Encouragement to continue ACTE membership throughout the years. Encouraging Louisiana to complete the QAS Encouraging New Mexico to complete the QAS Vice President Brian Law Mark Branger Patrick Biggerstaff Jay Davis Jay Davis Rachel Gonzalez Rachel Gonzalez Nicole Cobb Nicole Cobb Linda Romano Anesa Hooper Dick Lowe Dick Lowe Scott Stone Scott Stone Scott Stone Richard Faulkner Dean Baker Christine Holecek Christine Holecek Christine Holecek Report to the Board REGION I / _________DIVISION Submitted By: Jon Quatman Date Submitted: October 18, 2018 A. Strategic Direction Contributions Since the last Board meeting, what have you and your policy committee members done to represent and serve your Region/Division members in the following areas? Member Value & Engagement Ex. Growing Membership // Engaging Members // Recruiting New Leaders // Developing Leaders This has been a busy time in Region I. Our Bylaws Committee, under the leadership of Committee Chair Don Jarvis with support from Lauren Lessels, revised the Region I Policy and Procedures. These have been sent to the Policy Committee and posted on the Region I website. We will be acting on the revision during our Business meeting. We continue to work with Maryland to grow the State association through their directors association. This group voted to unify with national ACTE. Our Policy Committee Membership has grown to add Doug Webster from Vermont and Dr. Kristine Pearl from Maryland. The only states not currently represented on the committee are Connecticut, Delaware, New Hampshire, or Rhode Island. The Region Vice President is actively seeking representation from these states through our newsletters and other sources. As Vice President of Region I, I attended the Pennsylvania and Ohio State summer conferences promoting membership, Vision 2018, Best Practices and the Region I conferences. I also promoted the best of Region I and ACTE membership award. Under the leadership of Awards Chair Candice Mott, and support of Megan Kmiotek, we revamp the Region I specific awards to an online process and renamed them The Best of Region I awards. We rolled out in August. The goal was to increase recognizing the great achievements throughout the Region. We will recognize all the winners in a ceremony at our Region Conference. This was one of the strategies on our strategic plan. As part of our first ever strategic plan, to promote leadership growth we approved funding for an additional Fellow. The Fellows are David Peltz, Donna Shirley, and New Professional Fellow Jason Nicholas Miller. David is from Clayton, OH, Donna is from Milford, OH and Jason is from Philadelphia. PA. Many of the States in the Region are utilizing social media and their newsletters to promote membership in both their State and the National Organization. Professional & Leadership Development Ex. Sourcing Topics and Presenters (for Conferences & Online) // Evaluating Sessions Plan are under way for the Region I Conference which will be held on the Community College of Beaver County in partnership with Beaver County Technical and Career Center, April 24 – 26. The theme for the conference is High Quality CTE Programing utilizing the ACTE High Quality Framework. We will have two keynote speakers, Mark Perna from Tools for Schools speaking on his book The Answer to Why, and Rachael Mann speaking on her book Martians in the Classroom. The conference will also feature preconference workshops from ACTE, ACTE Lead, Mark Perna on enrollment and retention, and NOCTI. Paula Boughton, James Berry, and Robert Kondin are chairing the conference planning committee which includes members form Pennsylvania ACTE, Pennsylvania Administrators Association, some members from last year’s planning committee, and Policy Committee members. As mentioned above, part of our first ever strategic plan, to promote leadership growth we approved funding for an additional Fellow. The Fellows are David Peltz, Donna Shirley, and New Professional Fellow Jason Nicholas Miller. David is from Clayton, OH, Donna is from Milford, OH and Jason is from Philadelphia. PA. Our nominating committee has identified two qualified candidates for the Vice President-Elect position. These candidates are Don Jarvis from Massachusetts, and Carrie Scheiderer from Ohio. This will be acted on in the Region I Business Meeting. Advocacy & Awareness Ex. Sourcing & Showcasing Positive CTE Stories // Advocating for CTE Many of the 15 State in Region I have dedicated time to advocate for CTE with their State legislators in addition to supporting ACTE efforts on the national level. Following are some of these activities. Maine Maine CTE Directors have launched a collaborative initiative with the Maine Community College system to develop 4 new statewide enhanced articulation agreements this school year. Many Maine CTE Directors are signing up to attend briefings to the newly passed Perkins re-authorization. We are also closely involved with Maine DOE in drafting Maine's Perkins plan.
