Service to Districts

Our department provides leadership and advisement to school districts to ensure high-quality career education.

We offer support in a variety of different ways; such as:

  • Department leadership and oversight
  • CTE program elements, advisement
  • Consortium grant applications, SWP / CTEIG
  • Guidance, consortium grant work plans
  • Strategic partnerships
  • New projects/proposals 

We also help support and encourage the alignment of high school programs with regional workforce demand, working with industry and in collaboration with our community colleges: Moorpark College, Oxnard College & Ventura College.

 

 

CCGI

VCOE partners with the California College Guidance Initiative (CCGI) to support K–12 districts.
CCGI manages CaliforniaColleges.edu, the state’s official platform for college and career planning. Their mission is to simplify the path to college for all California students, close opportunity gaps, and ensure smooth transitions from K–12 to postsecondary education and careers.

VCOE, in collaboration with CCGI, facilitates a Community of Practice focused on the effective implementation of CCGI tools and resources.
