| Abstract: | Students of color represent the majority of enrollment in career and technical education (CTE) fields of study at community and technical colleges, which offer programs as pathways to further education, jobs, and careers. Following years of expansion and a rapid shift to remote learning during the 2020 pandemic, colleges increasingly offer online and hybrid programming. Notable disparities exist in access and outcomes for students of color in CTE programs, especially in online courses and programs (Anderson et al. 2021). The Career and Technical Education CoLab (CTE CoLab) aimed to advance racial equity by reducing disparities in academic and career outcomes for historically marginalized students--especially students who are Black, Latinx, or Indigenous--enrolled in credit-bearing online and hybrid postsecondary career-focused programs at community and technical colleges. By "racial equity," the authors mean fair treatment and intentional strategies that eliminate disparities for students of color and ideally result in equal academic and career outcomes for all students. This final brief provides an overview of the CTE CoLab, summarizes strategies colleges implemented, and reflects on lessons learned and future directions, with a focus on insights from the second phase. It is based primarily on published products and reflects the perspectives of the CTE CoLab project team (Urban researchers and staff members along with coaches from partner organizations) and CTE CoLab college teams (college staff members who worked on the initiative). |
