Business Education Partnership Coordinator School reform is a hot topic in the media right now. However, the need to change our K-12 education system is not a new issue. According to the Information Technology Association of America about 190,000 U.S. information- technology jobs need to be filled at any one time.
Vision is at the heart of any change process.
In planning for change it is the vision that drives our goals and actions. Business teachers can take a lead in this reform effort. Tech Prep programs have a firm foundation from which comprehensive School-To Career systems can be built. Invite them to serve on an advisory board, help you to develop a curriculum, speak in the classroom. Make a personal commitment to school reform.
