Dear CTE teachers, coordinators, and administrators,

Colored pensWhether you finish the year strong or cross the finish line on fumes, summer is a time to rest, recuperate, and recharge. That’s where we come in—the “recharge” part, that is.

Fall is a long way off, but it’s not too early to ask yourself how to make your work easier, more productive, or more enjoyable next year. One answer is to make a clear-eyed assessment of where you might benefit from some top-notch professional development.

Fortunately, this summer features CTE professional development offerings for everyone from personal financial literacy (in June) to family and consumer sciences pathways and beginning Fab Lab managers (June and July). It is an impressive line-up, and summer may offer the best chance to get the focus you need to really enjoy it.

If you just a need a refresh before the year begins, consider the Wisconsin Career Readiness Summit, being held August 7 and 8, at the Glacier Canyon Conference Center in the Wisconsin Dells. (Early bird deadline: May 31.) The event brings together CTE educators, administrators, and industry professionals who are passionate about preparing students for successful careers in today's rapidly changing workforce.

No matter what you choose, register for some PD and start next school year refreshed and prepared!

Your Wisconsin CTE Team
