CTE Learn credit courses can be taken individually to address specific professional development needs or implemented at scale as part of a comprehensive, institution-wide solution. The information below highlights the key components of CTE Learn credit courses and the supporting tools that together create a fully integrated virtual professional development system.
Participants may enroll in courses at any time, with each course designed to be completed in approximately four hours. The flexible, self-paced format allows participants to engage with course content, complete assessments, and collaborate with peers on their own schedule. Upon completion, participants earn a professional development recognition badge and a certificate documenting four hours of continuing education.
ACTE formally recognizes CTE professionals who demonstrate knowledge of the ACTE Quality CTE Program of Study Framework®. Through the CTE Learn HQ course series, participants can earn Proficiency or Mastery recognition while gaining practical strategies, real-world insights, and curated resources to strengthen CTE programs.
CTE Learn courses are endorsed by the University of Central Missouri (UCM), a regionally accredited public university. Course participants have the opportunity to earn undergraduate or graduate credit for their completed CTE Learn courses. Participants earn 1 Semester Credit Hour (SCH) for any block of 4 CTE Learn courses. Award of graduate credits requires proof of a bachelor’s degree and submission of a reflection paper with each application.
Each course provides participants with peer-to-peer learning opportunities through a specific performance group created within the Career Ed Lounge, CTE Learn’s online learning community. This allows participants to learn and share with their peers at any time they want, even after they complete the course. Each performance group brings participants from related courses together to enable interaction and learning surrounding a competency area. Participants receive a daily digest of activities in their performance groups with the ability to turn off notifications from any group.
Designated coaches and mentors from institutions can follow their peers in the Career Ed Lounge to review their posts online and via daily digests. This allows coaches/mentors to respond to posts at their discretion and act as facilitators of learning and development for their peers. Additionally, administrators who have access to the institutional “Key Panel” can share user activity reports with coaches/mentors.
CTE Learn includes an Individual Development Plan (IDP) tool to help learners identify their performance goals and link their professional development activities to their identified goals. This interactive tool provides a guided process to help learners achieve their performance goals and assess their accomplishments. Learners can use the tool to capture all their developmental activities, online or offline. They can also upload portfolio documentation and evidence to their IDP and download their professional development summary for any time period they select. The IDP is incorporated in each course to prompt learners to identify specific performance goals that they would like to achieve as a result of their learning experiences in the course and add those goals to their IDP.
