Career Technical Education and Workforce Opportunities in West Virginia Alignment and Areas for Growth
West Virginia has the lowest labor-force participation rate and one of the highest poverty rates in the United States. Furthermore, the state is facing a severe worker shortage. Thus, preparing young people for in-demand and high-wage jobs in the state is essential for both state economic and individual well-being.
Career technical education (CTE) and related work-based learning (WBL) programs in high school can help prepare students for good jobs to meet the state‘s workforce needs. Along with most states, West Virginia has pushed to expand CTE in high-wage, in-demand fields in recent years.
In this report, the authors examine the extent to which CTE participation in West Virginia aligns with local jobs and identify areas and strategies for growth. First, they summarize the CTE career clusters and programs of study that students are most likely to complete and how the popularity of CTE clusters varies across the state. Then, they examine how well CTE completions align with state and local jobs. Finally, they highlight strategies for expanding CTE and WBL and provide recommendations to state leaders for strengthening CTE.
