Why Join WA-ACTE?

WA-ACTE is the largest state education association dedicated to the programs and people that prepare youth and adults for successful careers. We are a learning and sharing community of teachers, career guidance specialists and counselors, and administrators at the middle, secondary, and postsecondary levels. Our commitment is to provide leadership in developing an educated, prepared, and competitive workforce.

Membership in WA-ACTE provides you with access to programs and services expressly designed for educators in the Career and Technical Education field.

Your membership is crucial to WA-ACTE's ability to influence education policymakers.

Building Career and Technical Education image to enhance your value

Image programs like CTE Week, give members access to materials and support to alter perceptions and make the case for CTE in local schools and communities around the state.
