Career/Technical Education: Title of Program
This data point indicates whether a state has changed the name of its program from "vocational education" to "career and technical education" or "professional and technical education" to reflect greater rigor and updated standards and curricula. Three states maintain "vocational" as part of the name of the career and technical education program.
Methodology: This information was collected from state statutes, rules and regulations, and will be updated as new policies are enacted.
