To ensure that America’s CTE programs keep pace with the needs of students and employers, the U.S. Department of Education created the National Center for Innovation in Career and Technical Education (NCICTE). The Center, led by RTI International, conducted scientifically based research and evaluation to expand the understanding, increase the effectiveness, and improve the delivery of CTE instruction. This website includes the reports of 10 studies produced by NCICTE between 2012 until 2017.
