CTE Course Documentation • CALPADS Systems Documentation web page: http://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/sp/cl/systemdocs.asp • CALPADS Code Setsdocument • CALPADS Valid Code Combinationsdocument
CALPADS Codes Sets • The CALPADS Code Sets document is a document that contains all codes sets used when LEAs report to CALPADS. • Contains the course code numbers, names, and definitions • Does NOT contain information on the CTE pathway in which a particular CTE course belongs • Pathway information can be found in the CALPADS Valid Code Combinations document.
CALPADS Valid Code Combinations • The CALPADS Valid Code Combinations document is a document that contains several worksheets that outline codes that are valid when used with other codes in CALPADS. There are two worksheets in this document that contain CTE information: • CTE Pathway – CTE Industry Sect: This worksheet contains all CTE Pathway Codes and their associated Industry Sector Codes • Course Group Master Combos: This worksheet contains all state course codes and all associated attributes of those course codes, including several attributes specific to CTE
Building a CTE Pathway 300 hours minimum Coming in 2017-18
2016-17 State Course Code Restructuring Pilot State Course Codes in these sectors have been updated and are currently being piloted for (16-17): Agriculture and Arts, Media, and Natural Sciences Entertainment
AGR and ART (AME) Industry Sector Changes • State Course Codes have been: • Updated and streamlined • Generalized by pathway to allow more flexibility • Split into sub-pathways to further delineate content within a pathway • Split into distinct course content levels (intro, concentrator, capstone)
Why are we proposing this? • Local courses were difficult to map to existing CTE State Course Codes • Pathways were different at local and state levels • Names were too restrictive • Could not distinguish between intro, concentrator, and capstone courses
Example – Pathway Mismatch • Local Level • Introductory Entrepreneurship course = Marketing Pathway • State Level • Entrepreneurship and Innovation I (code 4125) = Entrepreneurship/Self-Employment Pathway
What do the changes look like? • Agriculture • Ornamental Horticulture • Ornamental Horticulture • Introduction to Ornamental Horticulture • Intermediate Ornamental Horticulture (concentrator) • Advanced Ornamental Horticulture (capstone) • Floral Design • Introduction to the Art and History of Floral Design • Intermediate Floral Design (concentrator) • Advanced Floral Design(capstone) Industry Sector Pathway Sub-Pathway Course Codes Sub-Pathway Course Codes
Examples of changes: • Local Course: Introduction to Digital Photography • Previous state course code mapping: • 5755 - Commercial Photography • NEW state course code mapping: • 5713 Introduction to Visual/Commercial Art • Local Course: Digital Photography II • Previous state course code mapping: • 5759 - Photography production and technology • NEW state course code mapping: • 5714 – Intermediate Visual/Commercial Art (3 course sequence) OR • 5751 – Advanced Graphic Communications (2 course sequence) – Will be Advanced Visual/Commercial Art for 2017-18
Where are we Going? • Revise remaining 13 sectors for 17-18 implementation
New Draft Codes for 13 Remaining Sectors • New 2017–18 DRAFT CTE Course Codes are available for your review (sent to you electronically). • New codes will be assigned a new numerical range (7000-8999)
1. Identify ALL your CTE Courses • Identify all CTE courses taught by your LEA • Even those courses that are not part of a pathway (stand-alone courses with CTE content) • Even schools who are not Perkins or CTEIG participants will have CTE courses
2. Identify Pathway Sequences • Group courses into pathway sequences • Courses should align to the CTE pathway standards • California Career Technical Education Model Curriculum Standards web page: • http://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/ct/sf/ctemcstandards.asp
3. Assign Appropriate Staff • Ensure that all teachers assigned to courses within a CTE pathway are appropriately assigned. • Staff must hold a preliminary or clear Designated Subjects Career Technical Education Teaching Credential for a specific industry sector.The credentials are available in subjects, also known as industry sectors: • Agriculture and Natural Resources • Arts, Media, and Entertainment • Building and Construction Trades • Business and Finance • Education, Child Development, and Family Services • Energy, Environment, and Utilities • Engineering and Architecture • Fashion and Interior Design • Health Science and Medical Technology • Hospitality, Tourism, and Recreation • Information and Communication Technologies • Manufacturing and Product Development • Marketing, Sales, and Service • Public Services • Transportation
3. Assign Appropriate Staff • California Commission on Teacher Credentialing Credentials Leaflet 888 (CL-888) http://www.ctc.ca.gov/credentials/leaflets/cl888.pdf
3. Assign Appropriate Staff Additionally, holders of a Single Subject Credential in the areas below are allowed to teach within the respective CTE areas:
4. Identify the Course Content Level • For each course in the pathway sequence, identify the course content level: • Introductory (can apply to many pathways in a sector) • Concentrator (SHOULD only be used for ONE pathway) • Capstone (can only be used for ONE pathway)
Selecting the Appropriate State Course Code • When mapping your courses, please keep the following considerations in mind: • Do not map courses based solely on the local course titles • Map based on the: • Pathway or sub-pathway the course is in. • Level of the content taught in the course. • Number of courses in the sequence
Do NOT…. • Use the same course in TWO different industry sectors • Use the same course as a concentrator course in one pathway and a capstone course in another pathway (within the same industry sector) • Each pathway has DISTINCT pathway standards • Pick the DOMINANT pathway
Mapping a 2-Course Sequence • 2 Course sequences should always be mapped to concentrator and capstone courses
Full-Year/Multi-Hour Courses • Minimum of 300 hours* • Contains a year of intro, concentrator, and capstone content • Should be mapped to the CAPSTONE-LEVEL course in a pathway *There are few exceptions (e.g., Certified Nursing Assistant licensure)
Identifying High Quality CTE Courses in CALPADS • CALPADS collects ALL CTE courses • Including courses offered by ROC/Ps • Even if they are stand-alone courses (not part of a pathway) • Even if the LEA is not participating in Perkins or CTEIG Programs • Courses funded through the Perkins and CTEIG programs should be HIGH-QUALITY CTE COURSES • Therefore, Perkins and CTEIG courses need to be identified in CALPADS
What is a High-Quality CTE Course? • The course is (or will be) part of a course sequence that meets the CTE Pathway Standards; and • The course is taught by an appropriately credentialed CTE teacher • The course meets the standards to be funded by Perkins or CTEIG (even if the LEA is not receiving funding through those programs)
Identifying High Quality CTE Courses in CALPADS • High quality CTE (Perkins or CTEIG fundable) courses should be marked in CALPADS Course Section Completion (CRSC) file as follows: • Field 9.10 should be left BLANK for any CTE courses offered at an LEA that are not “high quality”.
Course Content Code 154 • Populating Code 154 means this course is being identified as a HIGH QUALITY CTE COURSE: • part of a course sequence that meets the CTE Pathway Standards; and • taught by an appropriately credentialed CTE teacher • Can also be populated on specific ACADEMIC courses that are taught by CTE-credentialed teachers
Course Content Code 154 Issues • Currently a COURSE-LEVEL attribute in CALPADS (2016-17) • Requires the creation of two local courses with distinct course IDs if one section of a course is high quality and the other is not • For 2017-18 we will identify high-quality courses at the COURSE SECTION LEVEL.
Potential Mapping Issues • Problem • My local introductory course maps to many State Course Codes in a sector • Solution • Choose ONE introductory pathway course to map to • Intro courses are only aggregated by industry sector and not by pathway
Potential Mapping Issues • Problem • I have a course that is a concentrator course in one pathway and the capstone course in another pathway • Solution • This course should only belong to ONE pathway • Create a distinct and separate course for the other pathway
Potential Mapping Issues • Problem • Our district offers a course that is offered at one school that is Perkins school, and another school that is not Perkins • Solution • Create TWO local courses with two distinct local course IDs • Can be mapped to same State Course Code • Course at Perkins school should be flagged as “154”
Potential Mapping Issues • Problem • Our school offers two sections of a course. One is taught by a CTE-credentialed teacher, the other is not. • Solution • Create TWO local courses with two distinct local course IDs • Can be mapped to same State Course Code • Course with credentialed teacher should be flagged as “154”
Example: Different Course Content Code Different Local Course ID Same State Course Code
