Career technical education: areas of interest test.

Abstract

The Leroy Greene California Assessment of Academic Achievement Act states the intent of the Legislature to provide a system of assessments of pupils that has the primary purpose of assisting teachers, administrators, and pupils and their parents to improve teaching and learning. Existing law establishes various career technical education programs, including regional occupational centers and programs, specialized secondary programs, partnership academies, and agricultural career technical education programs. This bill would require the State Department of Education to, on or before January 1, 2019, develop a new or revise an existing, or contract with an appropriate vendor to develop a new or revise an existing, career technical education test that measures areas of interest for pupils, as specified. The bill would require the department to post the test on its Internet Web site for the public to access. The bill would specify that a pupil shall not be required to take the test, either as a stand-alone requirement or as a requirement to enroll in any career technical education course.
