Carl D. Perkins V State Plan: Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment and Local Application

The Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21^st Century Act (Perkins V), passed by Congress and signed into law in 2018, requires that each local community develop and submit a Local Needs Assessment prior to receiving Perkins V grant funds.  Working with the Ohio Department of Higher Education and local stakeholders, the Department of Education developed a Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment and Application to meet all the new federal requirements and state priorities.  The Comprehensive Local Needs Assessments help Ohio’s Career-Technical Education provider plan and deliver a robust system of high quality CTE programming, focusing on high-wage, high-skill, and in-demand occupations, and serving all the citizens of Ohio equitably.
