4. Findings from Gap Analysis conducted by Dr. Jim Stone, Director, National Research Center for Career & Technical Education: 1)Our current CTE programs are not preparing students for high- growth, high-demand jobs 2)Many of our high schools are offering the same CTE career pathways, causing redundancy in low-demand fields 3)The school facilities are not adequate to support the types of CTE programs being offered or that need to be offered, and 4)The instructional models are not innovative in providing students opportunities for internships, student-run businesses or student organizations to support the career pathways
