Early integration of technical skills and practical learning is key to equipping students with the skills and experience needed for success in the workforce and various technical careers.

I had the privilege of touring the DC Career and Technical Education Advanced Technical Centre in Washington, D.C., alongside the First Lady of the United States, Dr. Jill Biden. Learners gain hands-on knowledge and skills, participate in internships and mentorships, and earn college credits or professional certifications.

The competency-based curriculum, along with TVET programs, will assist our young people in acquiring skills that will supply our economy with skilled labour for employment and enterprise.

We were honored to host @FLOTUS and @MamaRachelRuto yesterday, showcasing how the District is reimagining high school to help all students succeed. Read more about this work, including the Advanced Technical Center, in @The74: the74million.org/article/how-wa…
