CTE STATEWIDE ADVISORY BOARD
A CTE Advisory Board is a group of individuals with a common interest in a particular CTE area (Business, Manufacturing, Agricultural Education, Construction, Education and Training, etc.). This group is made of local business and community professionals, teachers, students, administrators and parents. The purpose of the advisory board is to support educators, students and businesses in developing, establishing and evaluating CTE programs to ensure students are well prepared for the world of work.
A CTE Advisory Board is essential to the future success of our students, as well as the workforce. In our CTE programs, we are preparing our students today, as tomorrow’s future business and community leaders. It is vitally important that we understand the ever-changing knowledge and skills needed in the world of work. Local business and community professionals can support our students by sharing their expertise with us through the Advisory Board. The future success of our students is not only essential to themselves, but to the local, state and national economy. Organizing and maintaining an advisory board gives our students the unique advantage as they enter post-secondary schools and the world of work.
The New Mexico CTE Statewide Advisory Board was founded in 2024 with the passion to continue the growing success of our CTE programs across the State.
