NCES Career/Technical Education Statistics
Web Site Updated
The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) within
the Institute of Education Sciences has just updated the Career/Technical Education
(CTE) Statistics Web site. In this update, a set of 15 tables was added to the secondary/high
school CTE tables to describe the characteristics of students who participate in
CTE. The tables are based on the most recently released High School Transcript Study
data and represent public high school students who graduated in 2005.
The CTE Statistics Web site includes tables describing
CTE at three levels: 1) secondary/high school CTE, 2) postsecondary/college career
education, and 3) adult education for work. These tables are updated periodically
to incorporate new CTE-related topics and data from new surveys.
