Welcome to the Tennessee Association for Career and Technical Education (ACTE), the proud host of CareerTech VISION 2025, happening Dec. 10-13 in Nashville. Tennessee is a state affiliate of the national association representing thousands of career and technical education (CTE) professionals and is dedicated to the advancement of education that prepares youth and adults for successful careers. Tennessee and national ACTE members come from all walks of the profession.
We work year-round with education policymakers and organizations, building national support and funding for career and technical education in cities and towns from one end of the nation to the other. And Tennessee and national ACTE members also enjoy many benefits and services that help Tennesseans make a personal difference to improve their schools, programs, students and their own careers.
If you have any membership questions, please contact Melanie Tuck.
