Today ACTE has released CTE: Developing the Transportation, Distribution and Logistics Workforce, the seventh in our revamped series of Sector Sheets describing CTE’s role in growing the workforce for vital industry sectors. The Sector Sheet series is published with support from ACTE's long-time partner Pearson.
These revised Sector Sheets include job opportunities in each sector and descriptions of how CTE prepares learners for the workforce in each sector, all in a new format featuring more streamlined text and additional graphics to make these advocacy tools even more effective.
This Sector Sheet describes how CTE supports the transportation, distribution and logistics workforce, which employs more than 6.7 million people nationwide and requires an additional 1.9 million new workers annually to fulfill industry demand. It also shares information on occupations, earnings and credentials that enable individuals to enter and progress within fields such as automotive, aviation, and distribution and logistics. Finally, the Sector Sheet demonstrates the importance of CTE in developing this workforce by describing how CTE prepares learners through courses, industry credentials, work-based learning, career and technical student organizations and more.
As we move forward with the revamped Sector Sheets, both the newer and older Sector Sheets will remain available on the ACTE Sector Sheet webpage for download and use. We encourage you to share these tools with students, families, counselors, policymakers and others to spread the message about CTE and its benefits for learners and the workforce.
