Communication with the ones giving out the credit is aa huge part of making sure your students are receiving the credit they deserve for completing the course/program given to them 

This upcoming school year - one of my many goals for my students is to help them find more ways to see all the exit paths they can take and feel confident in their choice once they leave the program/graduate from it

Knowing that I offer college credit in 2 of my levels within my program at the high school has taught me that students are willing and wanting to further their education within the field and wanting to really step up their game when it comes to the knowledge of the field and start working out their with their hands on real-world client projects

Making sure to stay on vertical alignment with other CTE and academic programs within your school and not repeat in your curriculum 

From the beginning I have always used the scaffolding method when it came to students learning about my program. I have seen the success behind even when learning something new or trying to figure it out on their own. 

It is the ability for students to learn a CTE course through a selection of courses during high school for them to gain the knowledge in a particular field while meeting common goals set by that particular program. 

Ba approachable and make sure to make/have respectable boundaries, but be approachable. Always make sure the students know you are human and so are they. Mistakes happen but we all need to be aware that we need to keep a safe and smooth running environment

Building that positive and safe environment for students to come and learn is vital to their educational career. They need to know that they are in good hands when in your classroom. If a student does act up or you have been noticing wrong behavior you should pull them aside, check-in, and see where you can help to move forward. You also NEED to discuss the consiquences with them on their behavior and that parents/adminstration will be notified for documentation, but also a sure they you are here to help them as well. 

I have stayed in touch with my PAC members as I call them at my CTE center. They have given my students opportunities to learn outside the school in work-based learning, and they have also come in and seen what I have been up to in the classroom, kept me up to date on current trends, and what students should focus on for the upcoming year as well. They have been a great help 

After teaching for a year now I have found building a professional relationship but also personal one with your students means everything to them. It helps them grow not only as a student in the field of their choosing but as a well-rounded person too.
