Our Signature Framework
The CTE Advisement Perception Model™
Research-Informed. Equity-centered. Implementation-focused.
Developed through doctoral research by Dr. Laranda Phillips, the CTE Advisement Model is a research-informed framework designed to transform how schools, districts, and educational leaders understand, promote, and implement Career and Technical Education.
