Description
Career and Technical Education Programs in Public School Districts, 2016–17 (FRSS 108) is a data collection that is part of the Fast Response Survey System (FRSS) program; program data are available since 1998–99 at <https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/downloads.asp>. FRSS 108 (https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/frss/index.asp) is a cross-sectional data collection that provides nationally representative data on career and technical education (CTE) programs. Public local education agencies (LEAs) instructing either grades 11 or 12 in the 50 United States and the District of Columbia were sampled. The study was conducted using mailed questionnaires that could be completed on paper or online. The data collection’s response rate was 86 percent. Key statistics produced from FRSS 108 include data on the entities that provide the CTE programs, the locations at which the CTE programs are offered, work-based learning activities and employer involvement in CTE programs, barriers to the district offering CTE programs, barriers to student participation in CTE programs, and the extent to which various factors influence the district’s decisions on whether to add or phase out CTE programs.
