MAVA Board of Directors & Vocational Coordinators,
Knowing that not all Board members have a membership in ACTE, we are pleased to share this “Sector Sheet”. This may be of interest to members of your staff.

ACTE is re-launching their popular Sector Sheet series that describes career and technical education’s (CTE) role in growing the workforce for vital industry sectors. Copied below and attached is the seventh of these updates — CTE: Developing the Transportation, Distribution and Logistics Workforce.
These revised Sector Sheets include job opportunities in each sector and descriptions of how CTE prepares learners for the workforce in each sector, all in a new format featuring streamlined text and additional graphics to make these advocacy tools even more effective.
This Sector Sheet describes how CTE supports the critical manufacturing workforce, which employs almost 13 million people nationwide with countless more workers needed each year to meet industry demand. It also shares information on occupations, earnings and credentials that give readers guidance for how to enter and progress within fields such as semiconductor manufacturing, electric vehicle and battery manufacturing, and supply chains. Finally, the Manufacturing Sector Sheet demonstrates the importance of CTE in developing the workforce by describing how CTE prepares learners through courses, industry credentials, work-based learning, career and technical student organizations and more.
