HQ107 - CTE High-Quality Framework: Facilities, Equipment, Technology and Materials

High-quality CTE requires relevant, safe facilities that are properly equipped to prepare learners. The facilities, equipment, technology and materials that support a CTE program of study are an essential component of program implementation and are one of ACTE's 12 elements of high-quality CTE within the ACTE Quality CTE Program of Study Framework™.

This element addresses the configuration, relevance and safety of the physical and material components of the program of study, including laboratories, classrooms, computers, industry-specific equipment, and tools and supplies that support learning. The application of this element in a CTE program requires a wide-ranging awareness of operating a safe, relevant and effective learning environment that supports the educational program.
