How Has the Supply of Career and Technical Education Changed Over Time in NYC?
In recent years, there’s been an increased focus on Career and Technical Education (CTE) in public schools across the country. Many states and school districts have invested in CTE programs aimed at preparing students for both college and a career after high school. As home to one of the largest and most diverse systems of CTE programs in the country, New York City provides a unique opportunity to learn about CTE innovation on a large scale, and the conditions under which CTE programs are most effective. |

Drawing on early findings from an ongoing Research Alliance study, our new Spotlight post examines the City’s changing supply of CTE programs during the last decade. In this post, we describe the number of CTE programs each year and the setting in which they were offered, as well as the representation of different career themes within the City’s CTE portfolio.
