TARGET AUDIENCE: Administrative and Supervisory CTE Personnel
DATES/LOCATIONS: November 6, 2024 – Hybrid Delivery Model
PIL HOURS TO BE AWARDED: 30
DESCRIPTION:
This 30-hour PACTA PIL will be offered in one location with optional helping conferences provided
in the west and in the east. Participants are required to attend a Report-out Session to present
their culminating project. The course includes 14 contact hours. Participants may elect to earn Act
45 hours or to simply participate in the sessions. Business administrators are encouraged to attend
with their school’s Administrative or Executive Director. The PIL includes budget philosophy;
program planning; performance accountability; phases of budgeting; effective use of fiscal
(federal, state, and local) resources; budget management, and presenting the budget to the Board
and member school districts. The role and responsibilities of the CTE Director, other
administrators, teachers, business administrators, and the superintendent of record in budget
development and management will be discussed.
There are three job embedded assignments (16 hours). The assignments are essential elements of
every school’s CTE operating budget: (1) Using your school’s comprehensive plan and PDE Chapters 4
and 339 Regulations, identify your student achievement goals; (2) Analyze the school’s current
budget and make recommendations for funding your student achievement goals; and (3) Develop a draft
JOC/school board document showing the impact of funding your student achievement goals through the
general fund operating budget (functions and objects). Participants will deliver a brief
presentation during the Report-out Session summarizing their priorities and budgetary changes
designed to improve student achievement.
Administrators will gain skill and evidence for components of the Framework for Leadership in
Domains 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 2a, 2c, 2e, 3a, 3b, and 4c.
