2024 Career and Technical Education Summit

In a noisy world, listening is not passive – it’s an intentional act of leadership. Turn down the volume and tune in to the voices that matter most—the people we serve. Together, let’s amplify the power of listening to transform education, strengthen communities, and shape a more connected future for career and technical education in Minnesota.

We’re excited to announce that our very own Mandy Janssen from GPS Ed will be co-presenting alongside Jason Jones from Hennepin Technical College at the 2024 CTE Works Summit. Together, they’ll explore “Transforming Education Through Strategic Partnerships: From Secondary Schools to Apprenticeships and Beyond.”

This session will dive into how innovative partnerships between secondary schools, businesses, and apprenticeship programs create invaluable opportunities for students while addressing critical workforce needs. Learn from real-world examples, including GPS Ed’s unique apprenticeship model, and discover best practices for aligning education with career pathways.

Join Mandy and Jason for an insightful discussion on Wednesday November 20, 2024 at 11:10 am – 12:00 pm on how these strategic alliances can transform education and help build a stronger, more skilled workforce.
