Winter Quarterly Newsletter | |
I want to reflect and thank everyone for another terrific CareerTech VISION conference. The Engineering and Technology Education Division (ETED) was well represented and I appreciate everyone who completed the survey. This survey helps me gain more knowledge on how we can grow our division to best support all of you. I would also like to extend my appreciation to the Policy Committee, Area of Interest Leads, and Division Fellow, for their efforts throughout the conference. Lastly, a big thank you to Jason Roth from Autodesk Education for sharing information about how Autodesk Education can support our division, during our ETED opening session.
I look forward to seeing you at upcoming events, such as National Policy Seminar (NPS), happening March 17–20 in Arlington, Virginia, and ACTE’s CareerTech VISION, happening Dec. 4–7 in San Antonio, Texas. The call for presentation proposals is now open for VISION and the deadline for submissions is March 1. If you are interested in reviewing proposals for ETED, please contact me.
