The 2010 National Policy Seminar was held March 8-10 at the Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Virginia. Almost 400 career and technical educators, administrators and partners came together to learn about federal policy priorities and upcoming legislative activities, and to help policymakers make the connection that CTE is the answer to many of the key challenges facing our country, including dropout rates, postsecondary access and completion, the skills gap, unemployment and more! Below you will find a collection of resources from the seminar.
