CTE/Perkins Updates
Montana State CTE (Vo-Ed) Application and
Perkins Funding Intent to Apply
Due April 15, 2021 (it will take approximately 10 minutes to complete)
All high schools and K-12 districts with qualifying CTE Programs are eligible to apply for both Montana State CTE (Vo-Ed) allocations and Perkins Grant Application.
The 2021-2022 Montana State CTE (Vo-Ed) Funding is an allocation based on the 2020-21 school year data entered in the Terms of Employment Accreditation and Master Schedules (TEAMS) and with Career and Technical Student Organization (CTSO's) State Directors’ membership rosters. The funding is allocation based and requires only a yes in the application to receive the school’s allocation for 2021-22 school year.
Carl D. Perkins provides funding to strengthen the Career and Technical Education programs offered to students; helping them to explore careers in high wage, high skill, and in demand fields. There are 16 Montana Career Pathways that allow students to explore the areas of Agricultural Education, Business and Marketing Education, Family and Consumer Sciences, Health Science, and Industrial Technology Education. Courses and programs must be taught by instructors endorsed in the respective curricular area. The grant application and 2021-22 allocations will only be made available to those schools indicating that they wish to apply for Perkins in the application.
Elementary districts are not eligible. For assistance, please contact the Career and Technical Education division at (406) 444-9019.
AIM CTE Collection Change
There have been several significant changes to the CTE Collection that historically would take place in March. Please note that the Spring CTE Collection is no longer taking place in March. It is now called the End of Year (EOY) CTE Collection and it will be opening in May.
We will send out new AIM resources pertaining to the new EOY CTE Collection including a new AIM User Guide and webinar information closer to the collection date.
