It is imperative that career and technical education (CTE) utilize research-proven pedagogy. Pushing on relevance to arrive at rigor provides an opportunity for "limited" and "perpetual duration" real-world learning experiences to be implemented within every contemporary CTE program. This study describes how secondary CTE programs are currently making this happen through school-based enterprises (SBEs). It investigates how school-based enterprises are being used across secondary career and technical education programs. The results will guide CTE, advance SBE knowledge, and showcase its contributions to high school reform. (Contains 4 tables.)
