The Career & Technical Education Coordinator (DPI License) is a leadership position within PreK-12 schools. Persons pursuing certification as a CTE Coordinator work collaboratively with other PreK-12 school administrators, teachers, and the community to ensure quality CTE programs that prepare students for further education and careers. The CTE Coordinator (DPI License) is designed for individuals with a Tier II, III or IV Wisconsin educator license.
Note: This program is designed to meet the requirements for licensure in the State of Wisconsin. If students reside outside of Wisconsin, UW-Stout makes reasonable efforts to determine if the curriculum satisfies their state's educational requirements, as published on this website. If we are unable to confirm whether this course or program meets licensure requirements for a given state, students will need to contact their state regarding licensure requirements, as satisfying those requirements is not guaranteed by UW-Stout.
