The Department of Education has issued initial guidance on the proposed IAC chapter 46. This comprehensive document details the major components of the proposed administrative rules, including Regional CTE Planning Partnerships, revisions to the six CTE service areas, the new program approval and review process, expectations for CTE program advisory councils, and more. It also includes a compilation of frequently asked questions with Department responses.
The guidance document will be updated as implementation of the CTE redesign progresses. The Department will continue to communicate pertinent information to all stakeholders, but please regularly check for updated information and guidance on the CTE Redesign page of the Department’s website. There you can also find additional information and guidance related to the implementation of HF 2392, including a Regional CTE Planning Partnership bylaws and multiyear plan template, guidance for implementing aspects of Iowa Administrative Code chapter 49 (career guidance), and more.
