As a nation, we need to replace the pervasive negative stigma of CTE with positive images as a primary path towards good jobs, not an alternative path associated with concepts of "lesser" and "menial." This project will bring awareness and "message discipline" to how career technical educators and supports talk about and present CTE, eradicating the old stereotype and, over time, replacing it with a new, more aspirational identity. Such discipline and awareness are a necessary first step to correct social biases that impede students from entering and thriving in CTE programs and graduating
Celebrating Earth Day every day, the REMADE Institute , a public-private partnership established by the United States Department of Energy, today issued its fifth Request for Proposals , representing a $45 million investment in the research, development and demonstration of technologies to sustain American manufacturing and accelerate the U.S.'s transition to a Circular Economy. Acting Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Kelly Speakes-Backman said this investment is focused on reducing the nation's energy consumption, decreasing U.S. greenhouse gas emissions
