Course & Program Approval
Every CTE course is approved by OSPI through the Course Application process in EDS. Course applications include course frameworks, extended learning opportunities, skills gap information, and more. Frameworks are approved for new courses, and then all frameworks are kept up to date by the district.
Program Approval Process Overview (PDF)
Career & Technical Education (CTE) programs in Washington are aligned with rigorous industry and academic standards. Teachers participate in meaningful professional development on curricula and instruction, standards and assessment, and academic integration.
