CABINET COUNCIL FOR CAREER & TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION
Governor established Cabinet Council for Career and Technology Education in 1993 (Executive Order 01.01.1993.05). Council was to set strategic direction for a system of career and technology education that met business needs, was based on competency, and focused on measurable outcomes. Council coordinated planning for career and technology education by State Department of Education, Maryland Higher Education Commission, and Department of Business and Economic Development. To further career and technology education in Maryland, Council worked to ensure that departmental, legislative and budgetary recommendations of these agencies reflected a sharing of resources and plans.

Chaired by State Superintendent of Schools, Council had three ex officio members.
