Stakeholders and Perkins V: Meaningful Engagement for Student Success
Council of Chief State School Officers
In July 2018, the Congress passed and President Trump signed into law the Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (PL 115-224), a measure to reauthorize the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 (the Perkins Act). The reauthorized statute, known as "Perkins V," gives states added flexibility in administering their career and technical education (CTE) programs; promotes innovative practices in CTE; and calls for extensive collaboration among state- and local-level secondary, postsecondary, business, and other partners in the development and implementation of high-quality CTE programs that prepare students to gain employment in high-skill, high-wage, and high-demand occupations that meet state and local workforce needs. Perkins V, the first reauthorization of the Federal CTE statute in more than a decade, thus offers states a new opportunity to rethink and redefine their CTE programs, in collaboration with a variety of stakeholders. In particular, state education agencies (SEAs), other state agencies that administer CTE programs, and their partners can take a serious look at whether their current CTE programs are effective, at whether they are preparing students for the jobs that are available in the state (and will be available in the coming years), and at what level of performance the state should require from CTE programs administered by local educational agencies (LEAs), community colleges, and other providers. Perkins V will go into effect in school year 2019-2020. This guide contains specific strategies on how best to connect with, speak to and learn from stakeholders with a unique perspective. This tool builds on CCSSO's publication "Let's Get This Conversation Started: Strategies, Tools, Examples and Resources to Help States Engage with Stakeholders to Develop and Implement their ESSA Plans" and provides: (1) Detailed guidance on stakeholder engagement strategies; (2) State examples of potential strategies; (3)Stakeholder-specific tactics; (4) Planning templates and tools; (5) A breakdown of stakeholders with whom states are required to engage under different provisions of Perkins V; and (6) Lists of additional stakeholder engagement resources.
