Abstract	The economic news has been dire--from growing unemployment numbers to the slashing of state and local budgets. Schools have been forced to look at cost cutting measures--from larger classes to the elimination of some programs. Yet, amid all the bad news, there is some good news to be found for career and technical education (CTE)--and some opportunities to be found among the obstacles. CTE enrollment at both the secondary and postsecondary levels is up in many communities. Since many of the sectors with projected job growth require CTE education and training, states such as California and Ohio are incorporating CTE in their strategic planning to develop a skilled workforce for these growing industries.
