ACTE Postsecondary CTE Summit 2026
Thursday September 17, 2026 10:30am - 11:15am EDT

This session explores how regional Career Pathway Support Networks can move beyond fragmented initiatives and compliance-driven work to create coherent, sustainable systems that align education, workforce, and post-secondary partners around shared outcomes. Grounded in real implementation experience, the session highlights practical strategies for developing high-quality career pathways, integrating CTE and college credit opportunities, career-connected learning, regional planning aligned to labor market demand, and building trust-based partnerships that outlast grant cycles.
 Participants will leave with a clear framework they can adapt to their own state or region — regardless of governance structure.  This session includes presenters from two former ACTE Next Level Fellows Programs that will also give insight into how the program helped to grow them as leaders and advance their careers.
