The theme of this year’s Institute is "Data Sharing." Institute sessions are designed to support states in accessing and using data to improve the collection and reporting of performance information on CTE students and program outcomes over time. Sessions are organized around three strands. Each strand addresses a specific set of issues related to the identification, collection and use of CTE student and program data. These strands include:

• Strand I:  Choosing the Metrics
• Strand II: Sourcing the Data
• Strand III: Using and Presenting Information
