1 July 14, 2017 SUBJECT: CTE Courses Changes for TO THE ADMINISTRATOR ADDRESSED: In 2015, the State Board of Education (SBOE) adopted revisions to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for career and technical education (CTE). The revised CTE TEKS will be implemented beginning with the school year. Among the changes to the CTE TEKS is the addition of TEKS for new laboratory courses that will be available as corequisites and combined with corresponding content-specific courses. Additionally, TEKS for new extended practicum courses that may be combined with corresponding practicum courses have been added. The current CTE TEKS allow a range of credit (for example, 1 to 2 credits) at the discretion of a local district or charter school. The revised CTE TEKS eliminate the range of credit and establish a consistent amount of credit for each course. The SBOE adopted a number of onecredit laboratory and extended practicum courses that, when paired with a content-specific course, will allow a district to offer an additional credit for certain CTE courses. For example, a one-credit Interior Design I course may be combined with the one-credit Interior Design I Lab course for a total of two credits. Districts and charter schools may choose to offer the content-specific course alone or the content-specific course combined with the lab or extended practicum. For example, one district may choose to offer Health Science Theory for one credit while another district may choose to offer Health Science Theory combined with Health Science Clinical for a total of two credits. SBOE rules require that the lab or extended practicum course must be taken concurrently with the corresponding content-specific course and prohibit a lab or extended practicum from being offered as a stand-alone course. As a reminder, a student must demonstrate proficiency in the TEKS for both the content-specific course and the corresponding lab or extended practicum in order to be awarded credit for both courses. Please note that, unless otherwise permitted in the TEKS, a student may only earn credit for a specific course once. A student may not earn credit for both a content-specific course and the same content-specific course combined with the corresponding lab. This would exceed the allowable credit for the content-specific course. The Texas Student Data System (TSDS) course Service IDs for have been adjusted to reflect the revisions to the CTE TEKS. New TSDS course Service IDs in code table C022- Service ID have been established to allow for the reporting of either the content-specific course alone or the content-specific course combined with the lab. For example, separate codes exist for Computer Maintenance ( ), one credit, and Computer Maintenance/Computer Maintenance Lab ( ), two credits.

2 New TSDS course Service IDs have also been established for each practicum course, with options for the stand-alone practicum or the practicum combined with the extended practicum. For example, separate codes exist for Practicum in Marketing ( ), two credits, and Practicum in Marketing/Extended Practicum in Marketing ( ), three credits. The revised TEKS permit students to repeat a practicum for credit one time, provided that the student is experiencing different aspects of the industry and demonstrating proficiency in additional and more advanced knowledge and skills. Separate TSDS Service IDs have been established for the first time a student takes a practicum course (or practicum/extended practicum combination) and the second time a student takes a practicum (or practicum/extended practicum combination). Attached to this communication is the reference document, Enrollment and Reporting Scenarios for CTE Courses Changes in This resource provides several examples for correctly reporting practicum courses and content-specific courses that may be combined with either an extended practicum or. Questions regarding the revised CTE TEKS or new CTE course TSDS Service IDs may be directed to Debbie Wieland, CTE and Technology Applications Coordinator, by phone at (512) or by at debbie.wieland@tea.texas.gov. Sincerely, Monica Martinez Associate Commissioner Standards and Support Services Additional Resources The new CTE TEKS and course crosswalks that demonstrate the correlation between the 2010-adopted TEKS and the revised CTE TEKS adopted in 2015 are currently posted on the Texas Education Agency website at After the CTE TEKS become effective on August 28, 2017, they will be added to 19 Texas Administrative Code (TAC), Chapter 127, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Career Development, and Chapter 130, Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Career and Technical Education, with Adopted 2015 in their title. The TEKS will be available at the following links: 19 TAC Chapter 127 and 19 TAC Chapter 130. The TSDS Code Table C022-Service ID is available at ards/. Click on Section 4: C022 Excerpt.

5 7EA Texas Education Agency Commissioner Mike Morath 1701 North Congress Avenue Austin, Texas FAX tea.texas.gov August 21, 2017 TO THE ADMINISTRATOR ADDRESSED SUBJECT: Industry-Based Certifications for Public School Accountability House Bill 22, 85 th Texas Legislature, 2017, requires the state to adopt a set of indicators to measure and evaluate school districts and campuses with respect to ensuring students attain the appropriate skills and learning to ensure their preparedness for success in subsequent grade levels and in entering the workforce, the military, or postsecondary education. For evaluating the performance of high school campuses and districts that include high school campuses, statute incorporates recognition of students who earn industry certifications under the student achievement domain and authorizes the commissioner to adopt rules to implement the accountability system. Statute lacks a workable definition of what constitutes an industry certification. TEC authorizes performance acknowledgements on students diplomas for those who earn industry certifications. In 19 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) (e)(2-3), the State Board of Education has recognized certain attributes that qualify various attestations of achievement as recognized industry certifications. This ensures that the achievement represents the acquisition of foundational skills and learning to ensure meaningful educational attainment. This also fulfills the public education goal of preparing students for success in postsecondary endeavors, whether they are succeeding directly in the workplace or pursuing higher educational opportunities. Similarly, the list of industry certifications in proposed new 19 TAC recognizes in the accountability system public schools that establish structures where students acquire the skills and learning needed for success in business and industry. In determining the list, the Commissioner considered the following factors: State-, nationally- or internationally-recognized: Recognition through a national or international business, industry, professional organization, state agency, government entity, or state-based industry association. End of Program: Represents a culmination of knowledge and skills achieved through completion of a program of study in a high school career and technical education program. Stackable: Attainable by high school students and transfers seamlessly to postsecondary work through acceptance for credit or hours at an institution of higher education or to additional industry certifications and opportunities through acceptance by industry as a validated credential for workplace entry and advancement.

6 Valuable for Industry: Demonstrates the skills and abilities necessary to secure entry into high-skill occupations as demonstrated through attributes such as high wage jobs with growth potential. TEA will conduct an annual review process of the list of industry-based certifications that will include feedback from stakeholders across schools, higher education, business and industry. For additional information and frequently asked questions about the list of certifications, please see the attached FAQ document. If you have further questions, please contact the Division of College, Career and Military Preparation at Sincerely, Lily Laux Executive Director School Programs Attachments: Industry-based Certifications for Public School Accountability Industry-based Certifications FAQ
