CTE Regions and Priorities

New Mexico requires a regional-association organizational structure where Career Technical Education funding decisions for secondary and postsecondary institutions are prioritized by all members of the regional, workforce-aligned association. Funded programs of study must meet Perkins V criteria related to size, scope, and quality and be aligned to in-demand industry sectors in order to be considered for federal Perkins funding, or be designed to meet local education or economic needs.

If you would like to add a program of study that is not currently identified as a Regional Priority for your region below, please complete and submit one of the following forms:

The LEA/IHE may commit Perkins and/or NextGen funds to approved programs of study associated with their selected Cluster. For information about local priority selection, please contact your Regional Coach.

*District authorized charter schools may be eligible to select a local priority. Please contact your Regional Coach for more information.
