Implementing Quality CTE Programs in Remote Regions

Wednesday October 7, 2026 11:15am - 12:15pm PDT

Colorado Ballroom

Session describes how YKSD has implemented engaging CTE program pathways in Alaska's remote regions along the Yukon and Koyukuk Rivers. We will describe how we have created partnerships with local entities such as Tribal Organizations, Trade Unions, Alaska Department of Transportation, Post Secondary Training Organizations, and other Alaskan school districts. This can help create a framework for any rural district looking to create a CTE Hub for multiple rural sites that do not have their own CTE facilities.
