ACADEMIC AND CAREER PLANNING
A Wisconsin law passed in 2013 says that every school district must provide ACP services to students in grades 6-12 beginning in the 2017-18 school year. Some of the data and research behind this action:
Success in the New Economy

WHAT IS THE IMPLEMENTATION TIMELINE?
Midwest Comprehensive Center and DPI will be co-developing an application process and materials for districts/schools interested in being part of the 2015-2016 Pilot. Contact Gregg Curtiss if interested.

ACP QUESTIONS….How is ACP different from what I am doing now?It may not be all that different from what you are doing now depending on how thoroughly you are implementing the current components of the Education for Employment (E4E) law and the Wisconsin Comprehensive School Counseling Model (WCSCM).
ACP should not be viewed as another new initiative, but rather be considered part of an ongoing process of implementation, review, evaluation, and refinement as a district implements the components of college and career readiness.
Furthermore, ACP reinforces similar requirements already in place for special populations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Career Technical Education Programs of Study mandated by federal Carl Perkins funding.

ACP QUESTIONS ABOUT SOFTWARE…Will my district be required to use the state ACP software system?NO. The state selected ACP software system is an optional choice for districts. Districts are welcome to contract and pay for any system they desire as long as the elements of quality ACP are included.
When will my school be required to access or use the state ACP software system?The state selected ACP software system is an optional choice for districts. Districts are welcome to contract and pay for any system they desire as long as the elements of quality ACP are included. These elements and any reporting requirements will be defined in subsequent administrative rule and guidance documents. If a school district determines it will access and use the state software system, then all students, grades 6 to 12, will be required to use it beginning in the 2017-18 school year.

WORKKEYS – THE CAREER READINESS PORTION OF “COLLEGE AND CAREER READINESS”
Over 20,000 jobs are profiled – can compare student’s results with the profile for the job and help him/her identify gaps and what courses, etc will help him/her grow
WorkKeys results will be saved in a database that students that can access. Students can retake WK later in life if desired to improve score.
DPI and WK will make a pdf available to each district to award the certificates to students who earn them.
There are no plans for WK to be part of the school report card (accountability system) at this time.

DEFINING STEM:
Can you define STEM? Is there one definition? Is it an activity? Is it a program? Is it a
curriculum? Is it a way of thinking? Is it a way of teaching, learning, doing?
Does our district have a definition of STEM?

WHY CTE AND STEM? CTE is critical to ensuring that the United States leads in
global competitiveness. CTE actively partners with employers to design and
provide high-quality, dynamic programs. CTE prepares students to succeed in further education
and careers. CTE is delivered through comprehensive programs of
study aligned to The National Career Clusters Framework. CTE is a results-driven system that demonstrates a
positive return on investment.
All five of these principles directly apply to STEM, demonstrating a clear link between high-quality CTE and STEM policy, programs and initiatives.
