CTE Mentorship

Develop Skilled CTE Teachers With Ongoing Mentorship

EnCorps CTE Mentorship Alliance is designed to equip subject-matter experts with the pedagogical tools, mentorship, and the workforce readiness foundation they need to ensure students receive the best CTE instruction. We create a community of practice that seamlessly integrates with your existing professional development. Here are five key reasons to include our CTE Mentorship Alliance into the fabric of your school district:

1

You Will Create Lasting Partnerships with EnCorps Educators

Our mentorship alliance is led by a team of experienced teachers and school leaders. Teachers will gain practical insights from current EnCorps educators who share successful classroom strategies that will resonate with your CTE Teachers. Workshops feature how to:

  • Implement project-based learning and instructional best practices
  • Design inclusive and engaging instruction
  • Deploy formative and summative assessments to build better teaching habits & parent-teacher conference engagement

2

Get the Mentorship Your CTE Teachers Need 

EnCorps doesn’t offer a one-size-fits-all solution. We work with you to craft mentorship opportunities that compliment your CTE Teacher professional development plan. Mentorship offered by EnCorps will be consistent, properly matched, and tailored to your CTE teacher’s classroom. Monthly mentor/mentee compensated meetings and ongoing support by EnCorps will provide the perfect formula throughout the year to attain a successful relationship.

3

Cultivate Student Relationships

Our mentorship alliance program uses a student-centered approach. CTE teachers will actively participate in collaborative activities to create practical take-away tools. This equips them to implement real-world, hands-on learning strategies in their classrooms, fostering higher student engagement.

4

Use Our Data For Continuous Improvement

We measure our Career Readiness workshops and alliance effectiveness through participant surveys to ensure we’re delivering actionable takeaways that help your CTE teachers succeed. This feedback loop allows us to continually improve and provide the most relevant guidance and programming.

5

Tap Into EnCorps As A Resource

Your partnership with EnCorps extends beyond the workshop. We provide access to our extensive library of recorded professional development sessions, led by distinguished educators nationwide. These sessions cover critical topics like:

  • Inclusive Practices for STEM Learners
  • Culturally-Sustaining Pedagogy in STEM
  • Mastering Classroom Management
  • The Science of Hope
  • The Neuroscience Behind Student Behavior

This ongoing resource ensures our CTE Mentorship Alliance cohort stays current, constantly refining their skills, growing their mentorship relationships and ultimately creating a work environment conducive to a long education career.

Golden State Pathway Grant

In May 2024, California’s Governor Newson announced a $422 million Golden State Pathway Grant to provide public schools with the resources needed to provide students with a pathway to high-wage, high-skills and high-growth areas such as technology, health care and climate-related fields.

The Pathway Grant serves students enrolled in career pathways, often taught by CTE teachers with industry expertise.
