===== FAQs ===== | ===== FAQs ===== | ||
- | - **QUESTION**: Which academic courses can LEAs designate as part of a Career Technical Education (CTE) pathway? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: LEAs that are populating field 9.10 (CRS-Course Content Code) with Code 154 (Career Technical Education) must now ensure that Code 154 is only used with specific academic courses that have been identified by the California Department of Education's Career Technical Education (CTE) Program Office as courses that would be logical parts of a CTE course sequence. **Code 154 can __only__ be used with the courses listed in the table below**. Using code 154 with any academic course **not** listed below (not including any CTE courses in the 4000-5999 range) will result in a fatal error. \\ {{:plsis:cte_pathways14.png?nolink&300|}} \\ \\ | + | - **QUESTION**: How do I set up a Dual-Enrollment CTE class in the Master Course List? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: The process for __//CTE Dual Enrollment is DIFFERENT than the process for academic courses//__: |
- | - **QUESTION**: Is CTE really necessary in a Student’s High School career? Is there any real difference between a student who takes a CTE Course and a student who completes a CTE Pathway? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: Yes! The state encourages schools to have all students take at least an exploratory CTE course, however the state definitely encourages – and tracks – those graduating seniors who have finished a CTE Pathway during their high school career. \\ \\ The current LCFF State Priorities Snapshot for every school tracks the percent of 4-Year cohorts that completed at least 1 CTE Pathway during high school. Additionally, the new state API for High School is including this same information as a significant indicator of a Student Achievement. \\ \\ To see your school’s LCFF State Priorities Snapshot go to www.cde.ca.gov/snapshot \\ \\ | + | * In the **Course Catalog**, support a course title for specific College course. |
- | - **QUESTION**: Where can I go to see a list of the current state CTE course codes? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sp/cl/systemdocs.asp | + | * Be sure to **use a //CALPADS COURCE CODE// for CTE courses (7000-8999)**. In the example below notice that the CALPADS code 8411 - for Criminal law - is used. (Notice you are using //**regular CALPADS CTE Course codes**// for these dual-enrollment courses). |
- | - **QUESTION**: Can you provide us with a sample of what CTE Pathways look like? We are just beginning the process to see what Pathways our school will support and would love to see an example. \\ \\ **ANSWER**: Here is an example of what a few CTE Pathways might look like: // {{:plsis:cte_pathways13.png?nolink&700|}} // | + | * **You __must__ use the Non-Standard Instructional Level indicator to designate Dual-Enrollment for a "College Credit" course**. __Otherwise the course will not report as dual-enrollment in CALPADS!__ \\ {{ :plsis:cte_pathways16.png?nolink&700 |}} |
- | - **QUESTION**: Can a student be enrolled in more than one CTE Pathway? \\ \\ **ANSWER: Yes!** A student can be enrolled in multiple CTE Pathways. | + | * Remember: many college courses are **a-g**. Be sure and **choose** the appropriate **A-G State Univ. Requirement Met** designation if this is the case. |
+ | * Also remember to **check the appropriate CTE Information** on the lower right-hand side of the page. | ||
+ | * **SAVE your changes.** | ||
+ | - **QUESTION**: How do you delete a Student's CTE Pathway? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: | ||

+ | * Click the **SAVE** button | ||

+ | - **QUESTION**: Is there any real difference between a student who takes a CTE Course and a student who completes a CTE Pathway? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: The state encourages all students to take at least one CTE course during their High School Career. Students who complete a **CTE Pathway** however are fulfilling one requirement necessary for showing up as being **Well-Prepared** upon graduation. \\ \\ //The current **LCFF State Priorities Snapshot** for every school tracks the percent of 4-Year cohorts that completed at least 1 CTE Pathway during high school. Additionally, the new state **API** for High School is including this same information as a significant indicator of Student Achievement.// | ||
+ | - **QUESTION**: Where can I go to see a list of current state CTE Course Codes? \\ \\ **ANSWER**: [[http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sp/cl/systemdocs.asp|Here, on the CDE Website]]. Click on the most current Code Sets (**CALPADS Code Sets v8.5**) | ||
